Allison, As I mentioned this diaphragm operation was being done at Cedars-Sinai Hospital and you can get the information on there website. It did say the physical condition of the patient has a lot to do with the outcome. Is yours unilateral (one diaphragm) or bilateral (both sides)? Also it was mentioned on this chat group the Mayo Clinic has a procedure that can check the phrenic nerve.
