Pains after heart bypass
I did have a partially
collapsed
lung
whilst in hospital and wondered if this was something to do with it. Has anyone ever experienced anything similar? I’m seeing the cardiac nurse in a couple of days so will ask her about it then.

Chemo in Tablet Form
I was hoping to go on another trial but due to plural effusion,
collapsed
lung
etc unfortunately I cannot now do this. I have been offered chemo in tablet form called Cyclophosphamide and wondered if anyone is on this or has been on this and might have positive feedback. Many thanks xx

do I need my inhaler ?
I had a
collapsed
lung
in September last year and they did a cat scan 3 weeks later. The results letter that they sent my doctor was also sent to me. I’ve gathered that I have emphysema and bronchial wall thickening and other bits.

pleural effusion
a couple of weeks ago , I was admitted to hospital with a pleural effusion plus
collapsed
lung
. I had 2.2litres of fluid drained from my lung! Has anyone else been in this situation ? It’s a bit scary as when I googled pleural effusion , it indicated that I don’t have a lot of time left .

lung
in on 5th Jan 2021 and after being discharged from hospital a couple days later I haven’t smoked since which hasn’t been as hard as I thought, mainly because the thought of wanting to stay alive longer outweighed the want of a smoke.

Update copd/working
She did say though it’s very hard to be approved but she also said I was a risk to be working on a ward, with the copd symptoms and a
collapsed
lung
. I will have to wait and see , with the outcome.

recently diagnosed asthma
When I was in A&E the doctor thought I had a slightly
collapsed
lung
and a small mass and want it looked at. The urgent car dr dismissed that idea and maintained Asthma . Any help and advice would be great

Seeking support
I had
collapsed
lung
lobes therefore was supported by a ventilator. I have been home for 7 weeks now and am slowly recovering. My pending issues are pain at the surgical site as I had 2 surgeries in the same place. I cannot lift my arms fully.

Unhelpful Work Manager
Had a few initial issues post op and spent 5 days in I.C.U with a
collapsed
lung
. But my overall experience of my recovery wasn't to bad. The hospital/doctor signed me off work for 12 weeks.

Doing well after surgery and diagnosis of lung cancer
Hi, I am in the process of waiting to see if my lung nodule has grown which is a spickulated one and I have lost weight. My ct scan results will be a couple of weeks after when I thought so this is quite stressful. On the Internet there is lot of negative stories about lung cancer and I was advised

Hello from Chom 🐕
Chom turned 9 on June 17th. He was adopted from a shelter when he was just one. Abandoned in a flat to fend for himself with a few other dogs it took almost a week for them to be found and rescued. Two of the dogs did not survive. He was the smallest dog that made it. Initially he was a bag of nerves
