Has Anyone Had Or Have Any Feedback On Lung Reduction / Valves Fitted?
If you check me out I had mine done 5 years ago Surgeon offered to do my otherlung now as mine are now not working as well But I've had a lot of benefit .Not a cure but helpmwith breathing and exercise tolerance
I've had 4 lung valve procedures since August 28th last year. The first one was good until it wasn't. Some months after the procedure they started to granulate and I could barely breath. Had to fly back to Florida from my home in Central America and the valves were removed. Stuck in hotel till swelling went down and healed a bit. So miserable as I was worse than ever. Oct 27 replaced valves. Kinda ok till valves failed again. Fly back to Florida March for extraction. Recover as best I can. Again miserable! March 21, replace valves with different size valves and placecement location. Different Dr. as well (Dr. Woytonowsky). Here it is August again, a year later and am doing very well. I would have the procedure again, but would ask more questions and garner more information. You have to look at us as lab rats, this procedure is still somewhat experimental and they learn new things on every procedure. Good luck. I hope this helped you.
