I Am In The Process Of Approval For Pulmonary Endarterectomy In The Summer. Anyone Have This Surgery Or Know Someone Who Has Had It?

A myPHteam Member asked a question 💭

I know it is rare but according too my docs my life expectancy without it is around 2 years so I really don't have a choice. Yes I have gotten 2nd and 3rd opinions. I know what the surgery entails and I trust my docs, just kinda wanting to know from personal experience. Thanks bunches

I do not know about that surgery! I would probably get a 2nd opinion from a PUL MD that specializes in that type of surgery… is the a medical school near you? That would be a good source of info about the procedure.
