Judith Heinecke hi it depends on the individual I have sever emphasema, the top part of my lung was just sitting there and had a great big hole in it, it was doing nothing, 💕x
donna bardenardenarden I had lung reduction surgery on one side in July. I had complications but am still hopeful it will help. How long did your recovery take?
I had LVRS at Duke Hospital. The surgery did not go well. My breathing is worse and I need additional oxygen than before the operation. It has been a little over a year since I had the surgery. Have made many trips back to Duke and many additional test. Doctors don't know why it didn't work for me. Think a lot before having the surgery. Their are newer valve procedures that are now approved. Nothing more can they do for me!!
Thank you for sharing. I am on the fence about what should be my next step but will hold off making a decision till I find answers for the Vertigo and that's under control.
Panicked and wait ror stars as u pass out and die reductions should be available to all valves are good but not all can get them due to collateral ventilation not sure where im going they found a 6 mm nodgle in nov got to wait til February for another ct scan im borderline doc said hell coils anything works i watched them do it fill up with water watched for leaks very smart help me find hope pl
God bless... Good to hear...my dad suffers from same disease..... question i wanna ask....is the lung tissue at this age naturally degenerating?....for some people at faster pace ? ... If true ...what are working measures to minimize lung tissue damage progression....?
I am 59yrs and have it im on oxgen 7 weeks now , my disease is deterating fast it all depends on the person , im waiting to hear if I can get valves in but I need a double lung transplant , my father had copd smoked 20 cigarettes everyday until he died at 84yrs I never saw my father the way I am
@@marykelly9698 wish you recovery and good health.. he passed away 6 months but not from that disease...he had entered the hospital to take antibiotics and care for his infection...but was so scared of the hospital idea...got mad of being admitted to covid 24 h confinement ...so he pulled off the needles nervously from his arms and tore his veins...subsequently got hemorragies ,lost lots of blood, complications....you could read chapter " Noah" from the holy quran ...it is only 2 pages long..god bless
Would this work on Alpha 1 patients? I just want to clean my house, grocery shop and ride my horse again. I am alpha 1 and sever bronchitis patient. Please let me know.
Much goes into that decision Isobell, but yes some patients with Alpha1 have had the procedure. I encourage you to call 217-545-5000 to learn more. Thank you for your question.

They can give you lung transplant say it to your team in the hospital
Hi, can't you replace the valves and how much did they cost you?

Is lung reduction as complex as a lung transplant?
What about hypnotherapy

Is there any downfall to the surgery? I have looked around and am not finding any
