Hey All,
Just found this site from talking to Ross. My story is have left side phrenic nerve damage for over year. Found out about month ago after many tests an to the point that my doctor said it maybe in my head. " Really" cant breath lying down, why cant I breath when I go tie shoe, my endurance very bad, not good when you are a fireman. They sent me home said live with it. I am 59 am ready to retire but not like this. In my research which only started in last few weeks as any one knows with this condition there is not many alternatives. Live with it or try very new procedures out there. Like what Ross did, or Bricko or Casey who fell off the end of world. Funny didnt hear from him after surgery if he even had it done. Bricko tell us more many people are waiting to hear. i am waiting for call from Dr Kaufaum to see if I qualify. He has only done this surgery 20 times I would say that is cutting edge. My GP thinks I should move a little slower, he dont have this problem. He says there is no documentation out there by this Doctor. Which I agree there should be some thing out by now about this procedure written by him. So confused here, If any other person had this done let talk. Thanks Nick
