The positive impact has been my condition is being managed with the medication if not my prognosis would have been two years. My parents and I are closer. I have met some life-long friends with pulmonary hypertension. My advice to someone who is newly diagnosed with Pulmonary Hypertension is to take it one day at a time. Manage symptoms with medications. Everyone with pulmonary hypertension is different so don’t compare yourself to someone else. My motto is keep fighting, every day is a new day.
