Pain after vats op
So sorry to hear you're struggling. Not sure what a vats op is, so not able to help much. Hope you get some relief soon. M
Hi migrtgem Sorry to hear your still in pain after your vat op I had my vats biopsy to remove top +middle right lobes from my lung 3 weeks ago and just getting better still getting pain I know just what you mean by pain from chest drain the hospital gave me carbocisteine capsules to help with cough have you been given anything to help
Yeah i got sum capsules dont know if they helping i had phnumonia a week after op back in hosp for a week since iv been home iv had two sputum test that come back with "a bug" growing so more antibiotics i wake up feeling nauseas tummy ache and that really bad pain under my left bust sleep pattern is all over iv never felt so ill
i had a chest drain in, in january woud have been happy to slap doctor every time he asked me to cough not pleasant. i still get a little pain sometimes if i cough but the pain does go away. i thought i was odd because i didnt think the pain from the chest drain should be this bad morfin (cant spell) didnt seem to work it took nearly two months to settle down but fine now xx
