Yes go for it, I had 4 last year 2018, they did work for me then The following June 2019, I Was hoping for another valve, but alas, my Lungs had deteriorated too much so never got the Procedure. If I could have them again I would, Always think that Any help is always there for you & for All, Don't refuse any help that can Help You. Good Luck Hun. xxx
