: friend has brother and sister now diagnosed with BOOPS. would also like any information. ??OPS obstructive pulmonary syndrome?? I was diagnosed with bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) in August, 2000. I am improving with Prednisone and oxygen therapy. I may be able to return to work by Christmas. I am able to drive. It's a disease that just knocks you off your feet. Find a good pulmonary doctor. There is one good site on the internet.
It is www.epler.com. He explains it so it can be understood. If you have any questions I might be able to answer, please contact me.
