Suggest Medication For Pulmonary Hypertension

my husband was just diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension. He is 62 years old and had been exhibiting tired and out of breath symptoms for over 4 years. I have been reading the internet articles all night. I am so afraid of losing him. He is a workaholic who travels extensively. We were planning to retire in 2 years. How long can I expect him to live?
