the cost..hehe.. i’m not very sure but it wont cost u a bomb.. don worry.. anyway, i have not done the VATS before.. but VATS will take around 30 minutes as Dr. Joshi, cardiothoracic surgeon told me..
anyway, take care..
don worry, pneumothorax is not a serious problem unless u have tension pneumothorax.. otherwise u’re pretty safe :)
so far i’m so good.. every relapse healed by itself within a week without any complications
