Zephyr Valve for lung volume reduction.
My pulmonologist is submitting a request to perform this treatment option on me in the fall. Does anyone have experience or know anyone who has had this procedure? I hope all of you are breathing easy. Thanks, James. https://www.breathestrongamerica.org/zephyr-valve/

Breathing and coughing excercises
I've noticed in a lot of responses to questions that people recommend carrying on with their breathing and coughing excercises following open heart surgery. I wasn't given any after my surgery and am wondering what these excercises consist of as I still have breathing problems following my valve replacement

Newby here seeking advice please.
Just been delisted for lung
transplant
(IPF) by the Harefield as my
heart
maybe too weak to withstand operation. Looking through medical notes i have, for the first time seen a radiologist report stating “volume mediastinal lymph nodes measuring 10mm short axis in the subcarinal location”.

Update and meeting the team.
I’ve had lost of tests done over the past few months. I met up the the transplant team. I’m looking at 5-10 years for a bone marrow transplant, they said it could be earlier, as I’m still working and I’m well enough they don’t want to do it to early. I will need to take year off work, (when the time

5 year old son having VSD closure
Hi all, after a few years of being told that my son has a small VSD and nothing to worry about, we were then seen by a consultant from St Georges and then Evelina at our new local hospital as we moved counties and it turns out he also has a coronary cusp prolapse so he is having open heart surgery at

Stem Cell Transplant-update
Well, I have been below the radar lately but it’s time to update you all. I was diagnosed moth PMF in April 2020 and declined quite quickly. I have CALR with ASXL1 mutation. I went through rapidly increasing dose of Peg INF but moved over to Ruxolitinib when my platelet count dropped. The rux helped

Irregular heartbeat after AF episode
Last night my OH had his second AF episode, first one was about 22months ago for which he was hospitalised. Since then he has been on Bisoprolol 1,25mg once daily and Apixaban 5mg twice daily. He was told if he had another episode to take “pill in pocket” once, which is a 5mg dose of Bisoprolol. This

Little boy with a serious heart condition needs help. Please read..
Thanks for taking a second to look at this for me. I'm currently 7 years old and have a serious heart condition, called a double inlet left ventricle. It means my heart doesn't have enough pumps and Chambers to function how it should. My condition is life threatening and life limiting, and will result

hello, partner due at the royal free next week and as part of evaluation has been booked for a right heart catheter. Has anyone had one, is it awful? How quickly did you recover. He was expecting to have to have one so its not a terrible shock

Transplant waiting list imminent/Nintedanib feedback
That's a huge relief as I was worried that they might have found some issue with my
heart
that makes
transplant
impossible. I'm almost certainly going to decide to go on the list but I need to talk to them to find out more about going on the list and when I should do that.

Long term medication effects
Hi all. Perhaps one or two of you out there are able to advise from your own experiences. I had a quadruple heart bypass in December last year, so I'm now almost six months post-op. As does everybody who goes through this situation, I have been put on medication, as prescribed by my cardiologist. Just

I have a kin interest in learning from anecdotal experiences.
Hi everyone, I read with interest many of the posts about AF that are similar to my issues and that is seems food is a trigger but mort interestingly I think chemicals in the food. I stopped all alcohol that didn’t seem to help. I eat organic and non GMO exclusively but when I eat at certain restaurants

The blanking period after ablation
I didn't think it was possible to hate AF more than I did before the ablation. Constantly waking up in the middle of the night and not being able to get a decent night's sleep. It wasn't always like this but it has been getting worse - probably 5-6 times a week. And then an ablation is offered - light

We are so very nearly there! (C section booked for next week) Then our new challenge begins - trying so hard to be hopeful! 🤞🙏💙
Just a little update from me for anyone still following our (very long) journey so far! We have been TTC for 8 years now. 6 fresh cycles, 7 transfers & multiple losses later and we are finally booked to have a c section next week. I cannot quite believe it. It is a time of total mixed emotions right

Microneedle skin treatment for kidney transplant patient
Hello... My Husband is kidney transplant patient for 2 years. He has some acnes (maybe it because of methyl) and leave scars on his face. I'm thinking to go to Dermatologist for Microneedle. Is anyone experience the same treatment?.
