I'm really worried about ILD and whether it's curable or not. I've read online that people with ILD only live for about 3 to 5 years. Is that true? Is there anything specific I can do to help manage this disease? Id really appreciate any advice or remedies you can suggest.

Can I mix Duolin and Budecort in my nebulizer? This is my first time using one, and Im a bit unsure. Also, should I be adding something else like saline solution?
Yes, Duolin (Ipratropium and Salbutamol) and Budecort (Budesonide) can be mixed together in a nebulizer for administration. However, it's recommended to dilute the mixture with Normal Saline (NS) to a total volume of 4-6 mL, as undiluted solutions can be too concentrated and may cause irritation
