After effects post-op

Hello everyone my name is Alex live in Fife Scotland bit has now been 6 weeks since I had my left lung removed and find like everyone on this chat the worst effects post Op. are like me the nerve end tinglings and muscle tissue which is sore under my arms when I do anything which I take pain killers but to me the nerve tinglings bothers me that no one seems to have any answers for.Until yester day the tingling was really bad accross my chest and especially accross the nipple area when yesterday my good woman stuck two large adhesive pads one accross the nipple and one under the arm which definately done away with a lot of the nerve damage so I think this is a small tip even though doctors cant do any thing through talking to each other we can help each other  

  • Welcome to Cancer Chat, Alex.

    I’m sorry to hear you are feeling so poorly after your operation.

    You are right, talking with others who are in a similar situation does help so I hope you will get a chance to chat with some of our members.

    I think the title of your post is a little confusing so have changed it to After effects post-op. I hope you don't mind? If you don’t receive more replies to your message though, don’t let that stop you from joining the conversation on threads that already started, everyone here is very friendly and I’m sure they’d be happy to talk to you.

    I hope you feel better soon.

    Best wishes,
