I have atypical cells creating fluid and they have stuck the lung to stop this happening. If I have a problem they might need to go back in. How do they do this? Also I am experiencing a lot of pain under my breast. I have been told this is neave endings. How long till it gets better?

Morning sue, I to had pain in my boob, and they told me nerve endings were the cause , It did last a while, several months but did go eventually when u just stop noticing it. If they need to do it again it will be the same procedure. I was told it could happen but fingers crossed and 8 yrs later although I have lots of other issues with my lungs collapsing hasn't happened again since my op, try not to worry about ifs and buts. Take care x Sonia x

I had this op about 10 years ago and apart from the odd nerve problem it has been no problem.it is a bit strange when you cough as the side with the lung stuck to it goes up and down

Hopefully like me you will have no problems
