A Hidden Autoimmune Lung Disease

Kimbrell was losing ground quickly while her doctors didn't know what they were treating. She came to National Jewish Health and discovered she had an autoimmune disease that was attacking her lungs. Now, she's truly living. You Never Give Up. Neither Do We.

This video would be helpful if ONLY u name the autoimmune diseases 🤦‍♀️

[@Atheros541]

Would be nice to tell us what the actual autoimmune disease was and how it was treated, rather than just an ad for National Jewish Health. Glad you’re doing better though.

I was thinking the same thing , Im going through all the testing for that right now , Going to pulmonologist , etc I was hoping to learn something from this . lol

[@kirtisoma3211]

sadly my father died of this 24th july. He took methotrexate for psoriasis that lower his immune system and eventually his lungs gave up. Doctors couldn't do anything, tried all tests and meds but nothing worked. I literally watched him suffer and die. He was in intensive care for about a month and last 10 days he was on a ventilator. Wish we would've known better about the side effects of methotrexate.

What treatments were used. I am currently suffering from pulmonary vasculitis. I have an autoimmune condition called Takayasus arteritis since birth had been on methotraxate for more than 13 yrs and apparently it started to affect my lungs. But havent been stable yet currently on Orencia two months and cellcept. But there hasnt been improvement so i wanted to know what treatment was used on her.

[@nopressurenodiamonds5566]

Whats the point of the video if we do not even know what autoimmune disease she has? This is not helping anyone but I sincerely wish her well!

[@crystalcoleman8668]

[@SanaEla_]
