About Gary Expertise Will attempt to answer any question on respiratory disease, but please don`t ask me to make a diagnosis. Although I`ve worked as a respiratory specialist nurse in the UK for 6 years, I know nothing about the health systems of other countries. I have a particular interest in asthma, COPD, spirometry, and tuberculosis.
Question My 3yr old nephew has been diagnosed with lung problems. my sister-in-law is very upset about this and won't tell us whats going on and i hope that you can tell me. From the information that i have gotten from her, his lung (not sure which one) isn't working, that the heart isn't delivering enough blood for it to work. i would like to know if you could please give me some idea of whats going on inside of him and what the doctors might do to help him. Thank you very much!

Answer Hi Amanda
With the information you have, it's impossible for me to guess what the problem is. I think you should discuss this with your sister-in-law, especially since she has chosen not to tell you all the details. Sorry I can't help.
Regards
Gary
