Moving right along……
n/a
It’s been a very busy month indeed.
When they say a lung transplant evaluation is thorough and exhausting, they’re not kidding. Every time I think Ive completed all the required tests, the transplant coordinator calls to say I still have more to do. In addition, some of these test have to be repeated every few months. But at least Ive had the luxury of getting most of this testing done at my own pace. Many pre transplant patients have these tests done on an urgent basis– sometimes just hours before being listed for transplant or being wheeled in for the actual surgery.
In any case, this is the stuff Ive complete so far. I hope to be completely finished by the end of September.
