Hi,
thanks for your query.
ILD is costellation of disease and has been divided into 4 sub classes. Many have got good prognosis like those due to connective tissue disordes, NSIP where as other have poor prognosis like that of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis...
You must have told about joint symptoms, swellings in the feet, drugs prescribed etc...
Best wishes
