Have been told my stats have dropped and am, at a point where we need to discuss a lung transplant.My FEV WAS 27% and FVC 58%. Can anyone explain in the most basic of terms how bad this is...am scared stiff.Am 57 years of age.Am not really very good at understanding all the figures and the doctors can't or won't answer me with straightforward answers,like do you have a rough idea of my life expectancy,with or without complications.
