================================
I had the Plurodesis (no chemicals, just the scraping of the lung/lining) Surgery 8-weeks ago to resolve a Pneumothorax on my right lung.
Although it has been 8-weeks, I still feel tightness and numbness on my right side. I know for a fact that the Surgeons had severed some of the nerves during my operation. I just don't know if this sensation is normal.
The last time the Surgeons saw me, my X-rays looked fine. However, I don't feel very fine. My friends are telling me to schedule another appointment with the Surgeons. I think I will.
If anyone knows how long it takes to feel normal again, please let me know.
Thanks,
Ken
