I just saw this post. Wow what a quick scare and also a quick relief. I am happy you are better than you thought. I will still pray for you till all that yucky feeling stuff goes away. :D

Hope you feel better soon.

Hey Leener,

I'm glad you're OK. Something similar happened to me two winters ago.

I had a chest twinge that turned painful. It was like a cough that wouldn't clear.

So I got X-Rays and apparently some months previous, I coughed enough during a sustained allergy attack to the point that I put a little scar tissue on my lung.

That was 2 years ago, but so far (knock wood) it hasn't resurfaced via a cough or pain (although the inflammation spot is probably still lingering somewhere on my lung.)

So I hope this passes for you too.

Happy Band (and Life) Journeys To All.

oh wow, glad to hear you're ok. anytime I read someone having problems like this makes my heart skip and beat and wonder if Im making the wrong decision - but it wasn't your band, so that is a relief.

If you have had Asthma for any length of time,it's a wonder you don't have more scars - my 19 yr old daughter has had Asthma since she was 2 and has scarred lungs - it's the same as someone else explained above.

Good luck and sending good thoughts your way.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
