Hi there are medications to take that will ‘reduce’ the pulmonary hypertension . They don’t cure but they do manage the condition. If you are in the Uk you need to be referred to one of the eight centres of excellence for pulmonary hypertension. I was diagnosed with PH seven years ago and the medication has kept me stable - it’s my other conditions that cause more trouble!!
