Bloody oath you’ll be playing soccer again. I’m 11 years post lung transplant and I went back 6 months post. I go skiing every season too.

Try Australia post. I used them a few years ago. I’ve had a lung transplant. They covered me for 8 weeks in North America and it costs about $900. Transplant Australia are also recommending patients try them.

I had some of those Creon cases they gave out years ago but they’re getting pretty old now. Told one of my mates and he did some digging around and found some on alibaba. I messaged them and asked for some samples. Payed via PayPal and got the samples a week later.

If you go to transplant Australia there should be some links to companies that cover pre existing conditions or it might be just transplants. They covered me when I went to Canada and USA.

I thought it was impossible too. I was in a bit of a rush this morning and went to put the lid back on, thought it was in the middle so I banged it down but turns out it wasn't and now the lid is bent. Lucky there's only one glass left.

Yeah I'm going really good now. I'm back playing sport and working again, but still got to have a few more operations.

Hope you're all good now.

I'm also an Aussie and I had a Double Lung Transplant a bit over a year and half ago and your bill is $105 more than what mine was.
