Pulmonary fibrosis is a scarring of the lungs....it's causes can be from a variety of things, like environmental, breathing in bad things in the air......once the scarring has taken place, it's permanent. I hope your aunt is seeing a good lung doctor (pulmonologist) and has had ct scans and lung breathing tests.

She Is Going To A Lung Doctor Now, So Far She Is Doing Better. They Changed The Meds That She Was Taking So Hopefully She Will Stay Well. Thank You
