although, a super hero whose power is to collapse their own lung would hardly strike fear in the hearts of evildoers.
Thanks to all for the outpouring of sympathy and good advice. the good news is that my lung is inflating nicely, and NO CHEST TUBES ARE REQUIRED! and that is good news. the downside is that there is absolutely nothing to prevent this from happening again; your prayers notwithstanding.
by that i don't mean nothing CAN be done, just that nothing HAS BEEN done. if i so choose i can pay a medical professional to :
- cut me open (with tiny little cuts)
- deflate my lung
- stick a long skinny tool into my chest
- staple up all those nasty little blebs
- horribly abrade my lung and chest wall
- fill my lung back up
- sew me back up
- and finally, pump me full of drugs for the next few days.
that is way up there on my list of things to do once i get health insurance. right after my breast augmentation.
and i have been smoke free all day.
