My Husband Has A Breathin Problem, He Has Postnatal Pnemonectomy
Hello - My 37 y/o husband had a postnatal pnemonectomy and is convinced that his life expectancy will be reduced due to his condition. He has some trouble breathing and is often congested but does not require breathing assistance. Is there any reason to believe that his life span will be decreased?

I dont think that there is a necessity for you to panic in this. It does not have any relation to life expectancy as such.
