Can NSF be fatal?

Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis
Yes, it's a progressive disease and can eventually be fatal. It causes excessive growth of connective tissue. On the skin, this would not be fatal, although it can cause difficulty with use of your legs and arms, as the skin becomes so hard that flexion and extension become impossible. But NSF also affects internal organs. If it progresses far enough in causing hardening in the kidneys, renal failure could happen, which would be fatal. It could also fatally impair functioning of the lungs.
Related Questions

What should I do if I have some of the NSF symptoms?

Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis
You should immediately contact your doctor. If you have chronic kidney disease, these symptoms will only get worse, and should be reported as soon as possible. If you don't have chronic kidney disease, but have had one or more MRIs or MRAs, you should also consult your doctor. Perhaps you were given a contrast agent containing Gadolinium, although this would be more likely if you were being treated for kidney disease. Your doctor won't be expecting to see NSF in a patient with no kidney disease.
