I need some input for all you out there... about a year ago i had to have a kidney stone surgically removed and when the intubated me my left lung collapsed and woke up with the tube still in me and couldn't breath, i was freaking out and everything. now i don't know if it was because they didn't put the tube in correctly or what but i am afraid of that happening again. do any of you know if that is a common thing or just a random occurance???

That's a really good question. I really wish I had an answer for you, but I don't. I would call your doctor and ask. That'd be the best place to get an answer. I really hope you get an answer soon!

Talk to your surgeon and the anesthesiologist. Hopefully it was just a rare fluke thing and it won't happen again.

Thanks everyone
