Guest guest Posted November 12, 2003 Report Share Posted November 12, 2003 Hey Everyone I heard from the lung Transplant group at Mayo again today.We're gonna set up tetsing to start on January 5th. Its a boat load of testing ! ! ! 1. CT scans 2. Anergeic skin testing (allergies I believe...could have misspelled it) 3. V/Q Scan 4.Pancrease and Kidney Transplant Appt(not sure why) 5. Echo 6. PFTs 7.Shunt Studies 8. Ride Sided Exercise Heart Cath..this does not sound fun 9. Possily reflux studies (not sure yet) Plus some more I can't think of...they said they may add more like a bone marrow biopsy. Meetings with 1. Both surgeons 2. Pulmo docs 3. TX coordinator 4. Dietician 5. Social Worker 6. Financial Coord. 7. Shrink 8. Endocrine consult (diabetes) Anyways...I found out they have a Mc House for adults so we're hoping to get in there.It'll save a boat load of $$$. Especially when we just got billled $2000 to fix our car today....UGHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I am feeling like pooie although I can do a really awsome impressionation of Darth Vador right now....you shouold hear it. As soon as I get my car back I'll be club med bound...=) Becki YOUR FAVORITE LilGooberGirl YOUNGLUNG EMAIL SUPPORT LIST www.topica.com/lists/younglung Pediatric Interstitial Lung Disease Society http://groups.yahoo.com/group/InterstitialLung_Kids/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
