Has your lung doctor suggeste referral to a transplant team? If your condition is getting worse I would definitely go to the next step. I had a left lung transplant, going into 3 months post op. Still have meds being changed but to breathe again is fantastic. I suggest getting the referral, they go over everything with you. Best of luck!

@kmg0501, I see that you have recently joined Mayo Connect, and I want to extend a welcome to you. It is a sincere pleasure for me, a transplant recipient, to meet you. Congratulations on your recent transplant surgery and on your recovery.

I have heard people tell of the miraculous feeling of breathing again after the transplant. What was it like for you the first time that you knew that you could breathe? Were you afraid at first?
