That’s terrible what happened to you after surgery, you must have suffered a lot from that along with the surgery pain. I didn’t have any broken ribs from the lobectomy but my lung was slow to heal so I was sent home with the tube they inserted in my chest after surgery, it took a month for them to pull it out, I felt so much better afterwards because that tube was painful inside my chest, I guess we’re tougher than we thought.

In reply to frouke, you too have been thru the wringer but as you say we are all stronger than we give ourselves credit for, it's amazing what our bodies can endure, ha our minds are another matter!! Seriously tho those of you facing any surgery and are scared, which is normal, don't worry about complications happening to you when you read of it happening to others as we are a very small minority of huge numbers of surgeries being done. Stay confident
