I had my surgery on March 17. I went home with a new chest tube (#2) in place on 3/22 and had it in til I was readmitted with a bowel obstruction for another 5 days. I know the end result is great but I don't think I could do this again in if it came back.

@cameron02492 , I’m glad you are doing better now. I’m a strong advocate for people making their own decisions about treatment, even when that means holding off. Hoping that you don’t have to face that decision.
