It's great that you're taking steps to manage your condition by seeking treatment. When starting treatment for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), it's important to discuss all available options with your healthcare provider. They might consider the severity of your PAH to determine the most effective treatment plan. Safe travels to New Orleans, and I hope your consultation goes well!

I drive two hours each way for my specialist. When I was diagnosed I was near death.... then I got referred to a PH clinic. Three year later, I'm doing good! It can be difficult at times to find the energy to travel, but totally worth the outcome!

I also have to travel 3 hours to see my Dr at Emory in Atlanta, but it is such a blessing to have a specialist that answers my questions. After hearing others talk about their issues with Drs who aren't specialists--I feel lucky that I got to the right Dr that diagnosed my condition and also treats it.

Hello Sherry, I have to travel 250 miles to go to the nearest PH clinic. But it is worth the drive. To have a team of wonderful Drs that know how to treat PAH. God bless.
