unless your having surgery i dont think its too much to worry about....i hope im right on that as i can only go by my experience because i have very high antibodies which will affect my possible match for transplant

Unfortunately Mandy I do need surgery to my right shoulder for a severed tendon....I put it of until I could compere costs with another hospital. ..6000 pounds.

And bang was diagnosed with copd.

I forget about the shoulder.

I wish you get lucky with a match

For your transplant so we can carry on talking for many years to come.

best wishes.

Hi Wedderburn, did you find out some more today? I don't know much about antibodies etc but am wondering what type of antibodies they tested for in the results slip you showed. My understanding is that the titre can be up for some, say antibodies to dairy protein but you may not have symptoms or any allergic reactions. As I said I don't know much about this and would like to hear what you have found out. Best wishesxxxx

No I didn't see the doctor today... I went to the hospital but got so upset and angry with the dental appointment I had...that forgot to ask to speak with the doctor .

I have to go back tomorrow....maybe if am not hurting to much after dental work...I will see the doctor. .. I would also like to know more.

Regards.

Andy.
