Another surgery 4 months following right lower left lobectomy?

Hi Minnie, Just saw your post any updates?

I had a lower left lobectomy end of Sept 2023 and I still have intermittent rib pain ( mine is under my left breast) that sounds just like yours it wraps around.
It started to feel a little better in March. But I still deal with it.
I take gabapentin & use lidocaine patches. I have to be careful with any abdominal movements.

It just depends what I do. Ours kind of sound alike, but mine was lower right lobectomy. I have to be careful as well because the back pain is bad. I don't take anything. Walking seems to help the back pain most days. When I do my deep breathing, ribs & chest still hurt & I feel it to my back. It's kinda weird. Thanks for asking.
