Welcome, @williaca. Is this a new diagnosis for you? Do you know what caused the diaphragm paralysis?

Getting a diagnosis for a rare condition most doctors don't know much about can be pretty overwhelming. Do you have any questions re treatment options, etc. It may not seem so, but you are lucky to have a diagnosis. Many people get shuffled from doctor to doctor for months or years before a diagnosis is confirmed by the SNIFF test. Was yours confirmed this way? Please let us know if you need any information or support going forward.
