Keeping up the hope
Just got back from another pulmonologist and got some new information. For anyone else who is suffering with a unilateral diaphragm paralysis, there is a fairly new procedure being done in Cleveland and Johns Hopkins that may help. This is very reassuring for me becuase it has greatly affected my life (I ran a half marathon less than a year ago but now can't walk around the block). Anti Anxiety meds are helping too!

At age 20, I will be getting a pacemaker in few weeks along with an SA node ablation. This opportunity may change a five year prognosis into a normal life span! I look forward to being a little old lady with a wicked cane!
Good attitude

Great job keeping your hope going, ambers. It can get hard sometimes, especially when there's been a drastic change in lifestyle like you've experienced. But sounds like you have a good attitude! Keep it up! :)
