Hi, I am 47 years old and I have been diagnosed with hypersensitive pneumonitis. Can you tell me if that condition is dangerous or not? I have been working with different clothing materials and it seems that I have developed so called farmer lungs. I have already started with the therapy and I hope I will get better soon.
There is no reason for you to doubt that. The condition you have is a sort of a long term allergic reaction to that material you have been working with. And it does take a lot of time for it to develop, but let’s hope that you have received a proper therapy. In that case, you will start to feel better in a while.
