In the acute form of clinical presentation there can be an acute shortness of breath associated with a high fever, chills and pronounced cough. This type of presentation is in a person with a history of repeated prior exposure to the same material. [nethealthbook.com]

- Fatigue
People affected may experience shortness of breath with activity, coughing, wheezing, unexplained fevers and fatigue. [motleyrice.com]

Chills, sweating, aching, discomfort and/or fatigue may accompany lung symptoms. Most cases of this disorder are characterized by mild, short episodes that may be misdiagnosed. [rarediseases.org]

- Pulmonary Disorder
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), also known as extrinsic allergic alveolitis, represents a group of pulmonary disorders mediated by an inflammatory reaction to inhalation of an allergen. [radiopaedia.org]

Compensation may be payable Complications: -progressive lung fibrosis -type 1 respiratory failure -pulmonary hypertension and cor pulmonale Prognosis: -the acute form generally resolves if further exposure is prevented -with chronic disease some patients [clumsylostmedicalstudent.wordpress.com]
Treatment
The text also examines genetics, lung function, bronchoscopy, treatment and new findings in the field. [books.google.de]
Treatment depends on the type of exposure and the stage of the disease. It may involve medicines, oxygen therapy, or a lung transplant in severe cases. [icdlist.com]
There was little or no response to medical treatment, and workers with severe forms of the disease, some only in their 30s, ended up on waiting lists for lung transplants. [ewg.org]

If permanent lung changes have occurred at the time of diagnosis, it is possible that the patient may not respond well to treatment. [rarediseases.org]
Prognosis
However, when smokers do develop hypersensitivity pneumonitis, it is more commonly fibrosing disease with a worse prognosis 10. [radiopaedia.org]

Epidemiology
Part of the Clinical Focus Series, Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis is a concise guide to the condition, discussing epidemiologic, immune-pathologic, physiologic, diagnostic and therapeutic developments. [books.google.de]
Epidemiology: -Uncommon = 2% of occupational lung diseases -By far, the most common cause is Farmer’s lung, affecting up to 1 in 10 of the farming community in poor wet areas around the world. -50% cases affect farm workers Symptoms: 4-6 h post-exposure [clumsylostmedicalstudent.wordpress.com]

Pathophysiology

In addition to an immunocomplex-mediated process, cell-mediated immunity obviously plays an important pathophysiological role. However, no routine diagnostic test for displaying this cellular response is available yet. [occup-med.biomedcentral.com]

Safety & Health Assessment & Research for Prevention (SHARP) — Research for Safe Work Food flavorings are a complicated mixture of compounds that may include a chemical called diacetyl (also known as 2,3-Butanedione). [lni.wa.gov]
Prevention of the condition by avoiding or reducing exposure to the allergen is the best course of action. [news-medical.net]
A simple solution would be moderate, common-sense legislation to prevent the inclusion of diacetyl and similarly harmful chemicals from vape juices. [mic.com]
