Hi everybody, as promised here is my update of my tests to see if i am suitable for endobronchial valves. Today was the last of my tests two weeks ago I went to the LGI Leeds cardiac unit yesterday I went to dewsbury hospital for lung function tests today I went to bexley unit at ST James Leeds for gamma scan and I must say at this point,I was really impressed with this test what a wonderful piece of machinery it is . Next Wednesday I go to see the consultant for the decision . Will I or won't I be suitable it is now in the lap of the gods I would also like to pay tribute to all the people who have taken the time to make sure I went for all my tests before my appointment next week it' wiil be a month to the day since I saw the consultant in my book that's pretty good going on everybody 's part so I could keep the appointment and not have to put it forward while I waited for any of the tests for me the NHS have bent over backwards and I cannot thank everybody involved enough I Will let you know how I get on next Wednesday.by the way I have a really good 6/7 weeks no chest infection just a cough and most days breathing not too bad fingers crossed i carry on feeling well take care every one of you.
