Hi,
Welcome to health care,
Oxygen therapy is the mainstay of treatment in minimak fibrosis.
Other that that there are some new medications like pirfenidone which may help but the other associated conditions like pulmonary hypertension also need to be treated.
Inhalers, physiotherapy, vaccinations etc. help in supportive management.
You may consult a Pulmonologist regarding the feasibility of above options in your case.
