Question: When should I see my healthcare provider about a rare lung disease?

Answer: See your healthcare provider right away if you experience signs of lung disease. Always contact your provider if you develop new or worrisome symptoms.

If a rare lung disease runs in your family, you may choose to talk to your provider about genetic counseling before you have children. A genetic counselor can assess your risk and the risk of passing on a gene for an inherited lung disease.
