Hi Wingnut, I had LVRS 20 months ago, I wrote a fair bit about it at the time so just search and you will find it or ask any questions. Where are you having the op ?

It is a bit difficult to gauge as I also had a giant Bullae sewn up at the same time and I have lost a ton of weight but I am much better now, I am going to ask for a spiro test soon to see where I am overall but I can walk much further than before and day to day life has improved no end.
