No point in getting anxious over the test results; they are what they are. Learn all you can about the process and your COPD. That way you'll have all the information necessary to determine what YOU want to do. Some people decide not to do it even if they are eligible to be listed; some decide the chance of a new set of lungs and normal breathing even given the meds you'll be on forever is well worth it. If you don't complete the tests you'll never know if it was ever a possibility. Knowledge is power; take advantage of it.

I think its just going from one problem to another kind of problems. I was told I cant have one to far gone so I live with what I have . A person I know got one and passed a year later .He went through a lot so makes you wonder is it worth it.Theres so much drugs and other things to keep you going after .

After just going though back fusion last July was enough surgery for me. I think the 6 hour surgery knocked me down a little...breathing has seemed worse since then. I don't think I'd ever think of a transplant and also don't think it would even be considered at my age

I might would consider it if that is the only way to live. Doesnt sound too effective.

Life is a crap shoot at best there is no rhyme or reason for alot of what we encounter along the path so to speak. I for one would take a chance on a transplant but it is not to be, oh! well lets get on with it !
