Default I will not be doing HiCy
I had an appointment to fly up to meet with the Drs at Hopkins, but asked to speak with one of the Drs first. We agreeded, due to my lung condition, HiCy was not an option. I had thought that might be the case, so at least I saved the flight and motel cost. Just wanted to update.

Hi Sheena,
Nice to meet you.
It's good you called first, that would have been terrible to be sent right back. Which treatment will you be going on? Have you and your doctor decided which is best for you? Good luck with your decision making.

May I please be so bold as to ask what "lung health issues" you two have, that would make you ineligible? I have a friend with MS, along with 3 other autoimmune diseases who is looking at a reboot as her last option. Unfortunately, she too has lung issues.

Thank you for your time.
