I received a single lung in 2005 and for the most part have been doing well. Just had to change a few medications and watch for skin cancers. And taking care of myself like Covid-19 was around before it was a thing. But every person is different and has different outcomes.

@funk8nguy, Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I am happy that you have joined this discussion about lung transplants. I am even happier that you shared your positive message. I thought I was a transplant veteran, (transplanted in 2009 - liver and kidney). It is evident that you are taking good care of you.
funk8nguy, Would you tell us a little about yourself and lung transplant? What is a single vs a double transplant?
