I had two lung surgeries in the past 6 months. Right lung lobectomy, left lung wedge resection. Left lung pain management was helped by using pregabalin (prescribed by surgeon) - worked much better than flexeril, which I'd used with the first surgery. Sorry you are going through this...

Thank you! And sorry you have had to go through this twice. I hope you are doing well. I had to look up the medication and recognize it under brand name Lyrica. If this continues and doesn’t respond to other meds, will discuss with the physician. Stay well!
