[Noblejanobii]

Well I finished all the regular AoT episodes. I'm going to watch the special episodes then move on to ONE PUNCH!!!

[Chakramaster]

ONE PUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNCH! Lol still love that show.

You know I'm still waiting on a fully fledged PMD anime

[Neo Emolga]

Yeah, that would be nice to see. Those single episodes just didn't feel fair.

[Noblejanobii]

I would love to see that though I'm not sure an anime adaptation can do those masterpieces justice.

[Chakramaster]

Oh if they work it right then I'm sure it'll be a masterpiece.

Well I'm finding myself back in the hospital now. Lung collapse #2 ;o;

Geez, dude, keep us updated and here's to hoping you make a quick and easy recovery...

yeah I mentioned it a few times here, but only a few people knew about it. It was really early on though is all I know I mentioned it here.

Ow. Jesus, dude, please be okay...

Geez, dude, keep us updated and here's to hoping you make a quick and easy recovery...

Agh! That sucks man. :(

Thanks for the concern everyone. For safety in case anyone here is squimish I'll hide the update and what's going on.

Spoiler:

so yesterday after feeling discomfort I got my brother (who is a nursing student) to listen to my breathing. He thought it sounded odd and did some online research to listen for what sound he's looking for while we called our mom (who was a nurse for years). They got back and she listened and said the same thing. They weren't sure, so we went to get an x-ray as a precaution. We called ahead to see if the same lady was there that diagnosed me with it last time. They said she was and they would let her know it was an emergency. So we get there, sign in and sit for about a minute score she comes out and calls us ahead of one other group. They took us to the room and told me to go ahead and come out and my mom can stay in the room while I got weighed and the scans. After that I was taken back to the room while they processed. A few moments later, she comes back in saying I do have another psnuemothorax (collapsing of the lung). She showed us the images and yeah, we could clearly see it.

Extra: so most of you know I'm a Christian, believe in God and the religion. I just can't turn away oddities like that. That only show me how lucky and blessed God has been to look after me. Why mention that here? Well, oddly enough...the same doctor was not even supposed to be in that day. It was her day off and she was just filling in for someone. How odd that things happen that way.

Anyway, luckily, unlike last time. I was stable this time and didn't need an ambulance. So my mom drove me. We got to the ER and we got up to the desk yesterday and they got us in really quick. It took them awhile to set up, but my dad and brother were rushing down. My brother wanted to be the one in the room and watching this time being a nursing student. I figured since this time they were giving me anestisia that I'd let him (last time I didn't need it and I wasn't surrounded by nursing students. There was 3 + my brother xD). Anyway they got the chest tube in and I feel better except my back hurts a lot. Last time I hurt so much I couldn't move without help or pretty much anything. If anyone so much as touched the tube I was in a lot of pain. This time, however, I'm able to move myself, touch the tube (to an extent), and really only my back severely hurts.

So we thought I'd be out of here in a few days like last time, but we talked with one of the specialist surgeons today after barely any sleep at all last night. He talked with us about another procedure. One we heard of last time if it ever happened again. This procedure would help prevent this from happening again by a significant amount. They will completely put me under this time with sedation. So I won't even be conscious. They'll make 3 more slots open near the tube, one for a camera to see inside any blebs or blurbs I think he called it. That are causing this to happen. He would fix those and hopefully it'll fix my issue.

But there's always the chance he won't see anything. So if he doesn't see any abrasions, he will create his own. This'll will make it so IF it tries to happen again, it'll only make it collapse part way. Not like how it did these last few times. So if I go through with this surgery. It'll be tomorrow sometime. I'll be here with a chest tube in me until at least Friday. Then I'll need 2-3 weeks off from work.

So keep me in your thoughts and prayer everyone. Hopefully the recovery and the aftermath of this surgery isn't to bad. Hopefully he finds everything and the surgery is a complete success with no issues. Hopefully it goes completely according to plan. If or when I can tomorrow I'll update you guys again. Hopefully it fixed the issue too. So I never have to go through this ever again. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I wouldn't wish a lung collapse on even my worst enemy. It's that bad ;o;
