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.

6 months on from OHS
These milestones were achieved with even spending 5 days in ICU with a
collapsed
lung
. We the ones that know got heart conditions are the lucky ones in reality, as something can be done about it. Good luck everyone.

Chemo in Tablet Form

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 .

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.

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.

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.
