You have to be literally be dying to have these valves installed. If I exert myself just a little, I can’t breathe. But bc the numbers are too good on my lung function test, the docs won’t install these valves. The medical community under the direction of the federal government has failed us. It’s become completely ridiculous.

I finally heard from the value doc I go 11 /21 she the nurse supposed to set up CT scan at local hospital I'll let you know I'm breathlessly panting might be my end soon hope I don't have the collateral air thing. I'm praying

[@briancathey498]

[@briancathey498]

im happy for him , my problem is my insurance provider wont cover the procedure because it (experimetal)

[@jamesrich8463]

Need to keep pushing, there is nothing experimental about it, it works apparently.

[@kimwolfe9852]

I’m happy it worked for you, mine failed and I’m really disappointed.

[@user-lp8qp2un9v]

[@timfortune1884]
