Which advice would you give to someone who has just been diagnosed with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome?

That is hard because if you have just been diagnosed you are critically ill. When I was diagnosed, my pulse ox was 42 and I was immediately put into ICU. If this doesn't apply I would advise seeking support on ARDS.

I don't see how you can give someone advise when they are diagnosed because they are usually in the ICU and very critically ill. If you could give advice mine would be to just deal with your illness right now. It is going to take all of your strenth to conquer ARDS.

To take it one day at a time and conserve your energy. To allow yourself time to heal from the traumatic event. Most importantly to see a therapist to help process the trauma of the event.

Get ready for a long recovery. It's a horrible thing to contract. you can't communicate with anyone. by the time I was diagnosed I was already in serious trouble. I couldn't breath, they had to tube me. I have no memory of even leaving my house to go to the hospital. I have sever memory loss before and after it.

Es difícil dar un consejo, ya que cuando ocurre, estás en terapia intensiva. En mi caso, en coma.

Do what your doctor recommends
In 2006 there wasn’t a lot of research on ARDS
I don’t believe there is anything a person can do to prevent this after all less than 200,000 cases are reported each year
