Hello, has anyone had a stent fitted? I had my stent fitted to drain the bile duct after having my lung removed. The procedure was called a PTC. After it I had sepsis and a perforation so then I had this fixed through another procedure. I’m really trying to find someone who has had a stent fitted. If you have, it woukd be great to hear from you.

  • Hi  

    I've done a search in the group for you and found  posted about their mum having a PTC about a year ago. I've 'tagged' them into my reply to you and hope they'll pop on and share their mum's experience with you.

  • Thank you Latchbrook. That is really kind of you.

    I’m not great at navigating this site. Eventually though, I find the replies although I haven’t found the post about their mum having the stent fitted. I’ll keep looking.

    Thank you again and wishing you all the best.
