I had open heart surgery 6 bypasses while in surgery they had to freeze the lung so the diaphram under the left lung was froze to long so it collapsed now the heart Dr. wants to go in & repair it but I am not wanting to have this done because of under going surgery again I am sort of scared I am 54 years old I have type 1 diabetes 2 shots a day he says that I need this donebecause of pneumonia latter on or could get cancerous. Do you have an opinion on this matter I sure would like another opinion.
