I am scared...

[mitch04133]

I went to the doctor's today for my post-op appoitment. I have been having pain in my back when I take deep breaths, and when I told my doctor this he sent me straight to the hospital of a chest x-ray. He is scared that I may have a tear in my diaphram, or fluid in my lungs and I may have pneumonia. I can't take this s*** anymore!!! I should know more later on today when I get the results back. Hopefully it's just discomfort from my surgery!

I'll say a prayer for you Michele. I hope it's just the recovery that is causing the pain, not anything else. Please let us know.

Michele -


Is it possible that the pains are gas pains from the surgery? When you get opened up, it allows air into your body cavity and the pain from the air/gas in your body can be really painful.


Let us know when your results are in!

No the pains are not from gas, its been over 2 weeks since my surgery and I have gotten all that air out. Besides, those gas pains are in my abdomin, and my pain when I take a deep breath is in my middle back about where my diaphram and lungs are. Thanks though. Still no word from the doctor....

Well, I never heard anything, so I am assuming no news is good news right?
