Is it necessary to remove the lung.
In July 2017 I was diagnosed with TB. Was in the hospital with strong antibiotics and a drain pipe in my left lung. Has been tested clean, no TB for the last 3 months. The TB destroyed my left lung completely. No function or any air flos in lung. My right lung grow very large and strong. Seen a heart and lung specialist and they want to remove the left lung.
Went for VQ scans and waiting for the ego to see if my heart and lung is stong enough is for the surgery.
