Guest guest Posted January 8, 2004 Report Share Posted January 8, 2004 Patty, I dont see why not. A couple of months ago here there was a 27 year old had a triple tx. It was lungs and liver. I also now of another friend who had a double lung and heart done about 12 years ago and is going strong. (Australia) Lung Transplant Eligibility Hi to all...and a special note to Natalia...I am excited for you re lung transplant.I am not familiar with what is involved, must be lengthy process, but i think youre tough as ive mentioned before...so hang in there, sounds like help is on the way:):) My question is eligibility for lung transplant people.Is it true because my son has severe liver disease(which, i dont think its that bad but gi told me he'll probably eventually need a liver tx), that he would never be eligible for a lung tx? And what about vice versa?Having cf disqualifies him for liver tx because of lung difficulties, or " otherwise unhealthy " ? Do i even need to start worrying yet,lol? Probably not but little glimmer of hope left when i read something of that nature:(:( Patty, mom to ty 8wcf and 2 lil ones wocf ------------------------------------------- The opinions and information exchanged on this list should IN NO WAY be construed as medical advice.
