I see your message in my email but it's not here on the page!! I did not have an open lobectomy. I had Vats. I called surgeoen nurse the other day and told her stitches are coming out of my incisions again!! She said they were supposed to be dissolvable sticthes but apparently didn't. Guess not!! So they are coming out!! So weird. Doesn't make sense. Going to my primary tomorrow to have him look at them, cut off the parts that have come out. I can't pull on them because it feels like I am tugging on stuff inside...ugh...so no idea how long it will take for them to push out. doesn't make sense to me. Seems my body is putting all its healing efforts into attacking these 'foreign' bodies...stitches, to get them out of my body instead of healing right. it's really freaking me out. Anybody know why this is happening or if he put wrong stitches in????? really bothering me. It feels so weird under the one on my back that keeps coming out. Pretty long right now. I can't see it myself with it being on my back but can feel how long it is!! wild!! Hope your surgery goes well. So why does onco say no immunotherpy now w/ your decision??? Still learning about this. And who said they are takinng Laetrite and Finbin. What do they do, how do you get them and how much? My mind is totally gone now after surgery. one doctor asked if I was w/o oxygen for a while since I can't remembrf what i say as soon as i say it. I have no idea! I just know my body temp was 92 in the recovery room. Wonder if that brain damaged me. I kinda walk sideways and drop everything now. Just broke my dead mom's fave possession and am devastated. hope yours goes well. I asked the nurse about the hypothermia and of course she has no record of that.....
