Phrenic Nerve damage and paralyzed diaphragm: Anyone else have this?

I am getting ready to have a Sniff test done. I have a ting left lung.

We are confirming that my left lung is paralyzed.

I have trouble breathing. Simply laying down is a challenge.

My doctor suspects my Phrenic nerve has been damaged which caused the paralysis. I am hoping to get the test done soon. I really want to try stem cell therapy. Has anyone else tried this?

@watermann. I haven't heard about using stem cells to treat a damaged phrenic nerve or paralyzed diaphragm. Would you please post information about it? Thanks. I'm sure the 950+ on the facebook page for people with paralyzed diaphragms will be really interested in it too. I'll post it there or you might join the group and paste it there yourself if you're so inclined. It's a great group, and I've learned so much about this condition, dealing with symptoms, and treatment options. Using stem cells is a new to me intriguing possibility, and I wonder who is doing it and how it works. Thanks. Nancy
