Stephen describes the difficulties living with Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis. He was initially suspected to have Tuberculosis but a year later he was finally referred to the National Aspergillosis Centre, UK. Stephen decribes a strong improvement when on antifungal medication but continued to bleed from his lungs. Bleeding was reduced significantly using a procedure called embolisation. This talk was recorded at the GAFFI meeting in Liverpool in late 2016.
