I just responded re this subject a week or two ago. Contact either Dr. Harry Reich or Dr. David Redwine for surgery re catamenial pneumothorax -- both perform this surgery, however Dr. Reich and his colleague, Dr. Redan, can perform this type of surgery laparoscopically! Also, Dr. Reich will respond to emails whereas Dr. Redwine first requires your medical records and a consultation fee. If you would like to speak more to me re this subject, please leave your email addy in your next post and I will contact you. I will say that if I were in your shoes, I would go with one of the (above mentioned) top endo specialists -- if you want to discuss this with me, I will speak with you about it offlist. Below I've listed Reich's and Redwine's websites/articles re pulmonary endo. If you go to Dr. Reich's http://www.adlap.com website, you will find him listed under (I think, don't remember) ?surgeons -- there you will find his aol email addy.
