bleb, and hurting

by waterschei, Jan 11, 2009 09:16AM
I am 38, 5 feet and 105 pound.

in 2006, I went to the hospital (sept 11) for what I thought a astma attack.
while there, they took pic of my loung and came back telling me I have a bleb, and it's about 4 to 5 cm.
not to worry, just forget about it.
went to a lung doctor and he gave me advir.

2 years later, went to the hospital in severe pain, find out that I had a infection in the bleb, and namonia.
after 8 day's they let me out, and put me on antabiotics, for 6 week. (fluid, in pic line).
I feld good again,

than they also said that it was now 5 to 6 cm, so it grouw 1 cm.

now 3 month later, it is hurting, so I went to the ER and they told me that it is not filled with fluiets or have no infection, they did my blood work, and wite count is normal.

they gave me pain killers ( percaset) wich I don't want to take, for it makes me sick.

so here I sit in pain, I can pick up my 2.5 year old son, for it hurts.

I have a docktors appointment on the 29 of january 2009. that is in 3 weeks.

what can I do?

It's good that you are seeing your doc soon...if the pain becomes more severe, see your doctor sooner. If this is a specialist, ask your primary to pull some strings to get you in at an earlier date. My doc does this for me if I need to be seen sooner than the appointment given at a specialist's.
I wish I could help more..
