I was diagnosed with dipnech in 2018 after having half my right lung removed due to tumours large and solid. After years of shortness of breath and cough which the Drs and I thought were due to a heart condition I have it was found I have dipnech. Now 6 years later I am to have more surgery in a few weeks due to the position of another slow growing tumour. It seems that although I have numerous other small ones they are only a problem if they become solid or they grow more quickly or the position of them. I obviously had dipnech for many years,
We can live a normal life , the cough and shortness of breath we take in our stride. Good luck all.
