Just got out of Hospitol ICU. Was in there for a week, and in so so much pain.

I collapsed a lung, and let me tell you this is some painful shit. Had to have tubes out into my chest wall to get the air out of my chest cavity so my lung could fill up with air again. Still not out of the woods yet, but at least I am out of the Hospital

Glad you are on the road to being healthy again.
If you don't mind can you share how your collapsed lung happened?
Was it a simple pneumothorax?

Regardless, welcome home.

I was sleeping woke up about 3:00 am coughing. Went to sit you, and noticed it was painful, and it hurt real hard to breathe. I had a feeling I had a collapsed lung ( never had one before ) turned out I was correct.

As for your other question to be honest I do not know, as within 10 minutes of being there I was so frigging high on drugs, and was the whole time I was there, and still am from the pain. It was one lung. Had 4 tubes inserted into my chest to help close the hole, and remove the air. I would not wish this pain my anyone. I do want to apologize if what I am saying does not make sense, and or sound like gibberish, I am too high, and in pain to be coherent.
