So testing first and new lung later?

 

Yep pretty much, Get my blood type and current lung size and then ill be put on the list for bilateral lungs (double lung transplant)

 

Scary shit.

 

How do the measure a lung? I imagine it's something like this with less ball touching:

 

eh not really, it is weird though he said if i end up needing to be put on a heart lung machine during the operation that i might lose some of my thought process, Like balancing a checkbook wont be the same but i guess i will regain that later on if i do end up needing it.

 

Sometimes life is like that man. Today I just took my mom to her 2nd Cyber Knife procedure in as many years for her 2nd brain tumor that was causing loss of consciousness, dizziness and such. It's shitty when you're just trying to go through life w/o being too serious and then shit like this happens to remind you.

 

Seems about right.

 

They do a heart cath, DEXA scan, Blood work, VQ scan, Full PFTs chest xray CT scan and an echocardiogram.

 

Needing what? Balancing a check book? I don't think anyone in this country knows how to do that these days so I wouldn't worry too much about that.

 

I do

 

I know the government doesn't know how to do that.

 

Basacally a machine that mimics the communcation between my heart and lungs, Being told when to exhale and all that, Apperently being on the machine could change alot of that.

 

Doesn't count...not in this country

 

I'll have a beer with ya before any of this happens

 

i enjoy maple syrup from time to time Eh.

 

Balls

 

Sounds good man!

 

I believe it's pronounced 'newts' where you are.
