Lung Transplant Selection

Posted by djallan @djallan, Jul 7, 2019

I returned home to Oregon last week after having an Iliac artery surgery repair at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville. Two weeks prior I finished a 3 week lung transplant evaluation. I was very disappointed that I did hear anything about being selected or not while I was in Jacksonville for the surgery, even though my vascular surgeon cleared me to the transplant team.
I know the selection committee meets on Thursdays so I hope to know something this week. Can anyone tell me if I have to return to Jacksonville for any post selection meeting consultations?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Transplants Support Group.

Hi @djallan, I missed this message when you first posted it. Have you heard about the evaluation in the meantime?
