Successfully Managing Pulmonary Hypertension

Pulmonary hypertension is a type of high blood pressure in the lungs that causes shortness of breath, fatigue, racing heart and lightheadedness. There is no cure, but many treatments can manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
Loyola Medicine patient Qiana Lomax is doing well with IV medication therapy delivered through a continuous pump. For more information or to schedule an appointment, please visit www.loyolamedicine.org/find-a... or call 888-584-7888.

God for you!! I have Pulmonary Hypertension too, I understand how you feel. I'm 62 and I was diagnosted when I was 26. I'm taking Letaris and It changed my life. I have a pretty normal life, I eat healthy, I do exercise and I keep a healthy weight for my frame. I have 2 kids, a girl 35, and a boy 27. I was supervised through all my pregnancy, and they were born, in a natural way. Keep fighting this disease with all I have. An you too. God bless sweet girl!!!!

[@qlomax2007]

You give me hope! I want to have kids soon but I know it is risky. The doctors are against natural birth, but technology is advancing and I am faithful.

[@danielleellis4781]

It is really encouraging to see this comment. I was just diagnosed and have had high anxiety about it. God bless you

My 10 day old baby is diagnosed with severe pulmonary hypertension, on the Internet it’s written patient have survival of around 5 yrs after detection. Can you give me some hope and tell me how long can a patient survive it

[@starberry847]

@@doughandme7199 Hi, seeing this stuff when I was searching the internet myself made me so worried as well, but many people in the community have reassured me that most of these articles are about elderly people, since it is more commonly diagnosed in elderly people, and young people such as myself have much more strength left in our bodies and can do much better! I hope your baby is doing okay x

[@starberry847]

I got diagnosed around 5 months ago, I'd never really thought of having children but beingtold i might not have the chance anymore at only 22 years old made me start to want it. Sadly they say that the medicine i currently take cannot be taken during pregnancy, so i really wonder what would happen if i did want to try for a child, since these medicine seem to be helping me really well and i wouldnt want to make it worse somehow by taking other things? I'm also in general worried to pass this onto my child and make them suffer this disease too :(

Wishing you all the very best for good health wellness and Wellbeing in your further recovery. All the very best Qiana ☺️. Michael, England UK 🇬🇧

Oh wow, how Extraordinary! I'm so relieved to hear she experienced significant improvements. Hope this pretty girl stays well and fit! I'm a 28-year-old male from The Netherlands, Europe. Last week I had to undergo a similar physical examination and therapy shown in the video, that same night I received a phone call, and the doctor who was conducting the research informed me that I've been diagnosed with _Chronic severe pulmonary hypertension._ And I can relate to all the symptoms whatever she's going through. They also mentioned that the best course of action in my case was Surgery, my local hospital has made a rapid referral to The Academic Medical Center (AMC) and the VU University Medical Center (VUmc) based in Amsterdam. I'm pretty anxious about what I could expect next, to be honest. My life has turned upside down after the symptoms started to appear in my life, everything went downhill. God-willing, I will be able to improve again and live my life to the fullest again.

That's exactly what I'm experiencing after 4 ER visits I'm not getting anything accomplished the doctors and cardiologist literally state I'm in good health take some aspirin and go home even if I have help trying to reinforce my reasoning they refuse to listen! I think it's because I'm on Medicaid.. .

I don't know what country you're in and what kind of healthcare, but at the very least a lifestyle change they make patients do would be you have to maintain a low-sodium diet, and dont drink more than 1,5L-2L of water a day, dont lift heavy things and be careful going to high heights
