Hi Kat,
We keep an eye on this with Amber because she had Hyaline Membrane
Lung condition when she was born - so her lungs are more fragile. Did he
ask if you were a preemie? If so - it would make sense - if not he
making a generalization. I wouldn't worry. You have surgery before.

Subject: Something to Worry About?
OK OK I admit it - I'm a bit of a hypochondriac. I went to my preop
screening today and passed with flying colours - blood pressure, checck,
heart, check, oxygen saturation, check, etc etc. But then the screening
doc asked me if my surgeon had asking for a pulmonary function test and
I said, no, he hadn't. Then the doctor floored me by saying I should
get one because I have CP and they think it's important to keep tabs on
lung function in CP adults as they get older.
Have any of you guys come across this? Now I'm worried about pulmonary
failure!
Kat
