A member asked:
Can you tell me if lymphangioleiomyomatosis is fatal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually not curable: LAM does not have a cure, unfortunately. But, if you or someone you know has LAM, I would strongly urge you (or her) to see a specialist for this disease. They will know the latest treatments and possibly get you (or her) plugged in for possible lung transplant. Good luck.
