About Me (In My Own Words)
My robotic surgery was successful and my post surgery care takes place in my home town in IL.
I have been dealing with heart rate issues and adjusting medicines: ELoquis, Metrprolol, and Entresto. I am wanting to get feedback on the Robotic procedure. I have nerve damage around my right rib cage area and pain in my lung and at the insertion points. My side has been sore to the touch like a big bruise from day one. It has been 11 months .
A CT scan showed a nodule on my lung lining that causes pain when I breathe in deep.
My cardiologist and pulmonologist are concluding that it is possible inflammation from the surgery. Has anyone else experienced this and done anything to find relief?
