I am sorry to hear about your continued pain. Instead of going back to the surgeon you might try seeing your regular doctor; sometimes they can help with pain issues. Give yourself some time to heal. I am now 6 months past my robotic surgery; I am 78. Only recently have I begun to feel normal.

Hi and thank you for letting me know that it may take that long to heal. My regular doctor was unavailable to see last week and coming week she is away, and her schedule is full until mid July. Apparently, I made need a root canal and I also have a second appointment for another colonoscopy, one done a few weeks prior to my lobectomy, could only remove 2 1/2 pre-cancerous polyps; so that other half or whatever they hadn't got out is going to be hopefully removed. Just so many things are overwhelming right now. Spouse came down with Viral Bronchitis and went to ER early this morning and spent most of the day there. Worrisome for both him and myself, as I need to mask when around him. Hence he sleeps in another room now. But we are together mostly in our family room. Just too many health related problems to deal with at one time as I am trying to heal from this lobectomy.
