Aspergillus post lung transplant.
Hi all, Haven’t been in touch for a while now but mercifully still here. Lungaversary last month which I can only describe as a stormy recovery. Trichosporon infection In clamshell wound delayed discharge by 4 weeks. 1 month in ICU with terrifying hallucinations which still haunt me today. Sternum

DAO Supplement + Lung Transplant.
Hello, I realise this is going to be a very strange post, but this is stress that this is a genuine question / request, I may need a
lung
transplant
in the near future. Nothing is set in stone yet, but it's a possibility. I haven't been in contact with a transplant team yet or anything.

Lung Transplant + Fermented Foods
Hello, I have a question for
lung
transplant
recipients: are you allowed to eat anything fermented? I may need a transplant in the near future, but I have a histamine problem which is controlled with antihistamines and DAO tablets.

Lung Transplantation
Hello, I just wanted to ask the community whether they had been through the process of being assessed for a
lung
transplant
or not? What was your experience with the assessment? Did you get accepted as a transplant candidate? What condition did you have that led you to get assessed?

Hello from Chom 🐕
He stayed close to me when I received a devastating diagnosis of end stage
lung
disease and helped me through recovery after a
lung
transplant
in 2019. Chom walks slower than he used to and the tufts of white fur around his muzzle have increased this past year or so.

Lung damage, ECMO, time taken to recover.

is an option, but something we would want to avoid, but stories would help

Nintedanib
Hi, I am absolutely useless with technology…… I wrote a lengthy update about myself, this drug, other drugs, hospital stay, decline of
lung
transplant
at Harefield, referral to palliative care, oxygen - sorry goes on and on, just wanted to share the year’s overall experience.

Mycophenolate instead of Perfinedine or Nintenanib?
I have been told I am too old at 62 to be considered for a
lung
transplant
and have also been turned down for the antiscarring medication even though I was initially told this was the plan.

Lung Transplant appointment 28/11/23 Cancellled for the 2nd time due to Failure of Patient Transport
I was supposed to be having my
lung
transplant
assessment today (28/11) at 2.45 but as before the NWAS didnt turn up. The manager at the Transplant section phoned & told me if I didnt come to the hospital they wouldn't see me.

CYSTOSCOPY NEGATIVE August 2023
And next April (2024), if it holds, I’ll be cancer free for three years and can get back on the
lung
transplant
list. “Let your last thinks all be thanks” -W.H. Auden Love you all! James

Bed hair
I can go forward for a
lung
transplant
but you know, I caused this with smoking, I gave up 2 years ago. And I don't fancy having my ribcage opened and someone else's blood in me. Anyway to the question, one for the ladies, or men with hair still on their head 😂.

Time flies... when you're having babies!
I don't know how others that have been on the
lung
transplant
list feel but I have definitely found that the mental side of things has got harder with time. For me, a lot of it is frustration tinged with fear that it might never happen.

saving my dad
Dr wants to run tests to see if he is a candidate for a
lung
transplant
. But running out of time…dr said without
lung
transplant
he doesn’t think he can keep him alive for even a year. Looking for successful treatment plans. Has anyone heard of treating PF with Food grade hydrogen peroxide?

Organ Donation for Transplant and Research
There were four of us fellow liver transplantees there along with a few heart transplantees and even one lady who had had both a
lung
and heart
transplant
. There was a presentation on how research is trying to find ways of getting heart muscles to regenerate.

Doctors perform kidney transplant on awake patient
"There are a lot of people that have heart and
lung
disease that also need a kidney
transplant
, and that just increases the risk of general anesthesia even more," Dr.
