Treatment Options for Paralyzed Diaphragm

P.S. Who diagnosed your paralyzed diaphragm? Did you have a SNIFF test, which is the definitive test that determines if the diaphragm is paralyzed. The doctor who ordered and evaluated the SNIFF test should be able to help you find a qualified thoracic surgeon too.

The latest technology for determining a paralyzed diaphragm is a SNIFF test using ultrasound. This replaces the fluroscope SNIFF test.
