Hi first time I have posted so hello all. I had surgery on 8/12/2016 they removed a tumour from my left lung (NSC) but as it had invaded the chest wall & in surgeons words 'was nibbling away at some ribs and 2 vertabrae' they also had to remove part of those as well. First week after surgery seemed to do well but so little improvement since then. Still on loads of pain relief. 70mg twice a day oxcycodone 300mg 3 times a day gabapentin & oxymoron as required which is very often. When will the pain begin to get better not sure I can take this much longer. Pain in my back and all around my left breast & around my ribs. Not due to see the surgeon & oncologist until the 24th jan. has anyone had a similar experience any advice would e gratefully received thanks x
