Guest guest Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 I got a call from the Lung Transplant Program at Brigham and Women's in Boston this afternoon. After reviewing my file, they are scheduling me for the in-patient evaluation, which is the final piece of the evaluation process. Two days of testing, to include a cardiac catheterization. After that, if all goes well, I will just need to lose an additional 25 pounds in order to be listed. This comes on the 1 year anniversary of my initial diagnosis - actually yesterday, also my godson's first birthday!
