Hi Tina! Congrats on your new lungs! I have not had a lung transplant yet, but I do not think it is too far off. I was seen last week and was again put on the deferred list, which is ok by me. I am curious as to why you had both lungs done on two separate days? I had never heard of that being done.

It was a night surgery so I had one put in at 11:30 PM and the other at 12:03 AM. There was some issue with the donor (or their family) that I had been informed at 7AM that I was going to get the transplant sometime that afternoon, but didn't get prepped until around 10PM.
What is your score? I went from 48.6 to 75 within weeks, due to how fast I was going down hill. I will put you on my prayer list, if you don't mind.
