Double lung transplant is a big job.
When I was in Hospital, there was a chap there having the whole lot transplanted - Heart, Lungs, Kidney, Liver and I believe. the Spleen. Over 12 hours to do and I would imagine, a sizeable scar.

A friend had a liver transplant when he was young. The scar looks like a peace sign and covers most of his torso.

Good news about the lung transplant. There is usually a time limit but it is very variable and hopefully many years.
I'm pleased that my scar is barely visible, even though I know where it is. The stitches were internal and the skin was joined with glue. A couple of the others in with me at the time, had rows of staples, for some reason. Maybe because they were younger and had muscles, they needed something more robust ?

I worked with a lad in Kwikfit Gateshead, who had a kidney transplant...his name was Dave Sanderson, if I remember correctly.....or he may even have had 2...He liked a drink, which did him no good what so ever, he told me he would be crawling the floor at times gasping for breath...My memory is a bit foggy...it is a long long time ago..that may have been something to do with anti rejection drugs..I'm sure though when he laid off the beer and took his meds, he was fine...didn't stop him grafting..he was a top fitter and a good grafter...canny lad too...

Yes, last August. The op went well it's all that's come after I have questions about. I believe the majority of my problems are medication related but it's not easy asking the Consultants when I go to the Clinic as they are extremely busy.
