– February 16, 2009Posted in: Medical, Spontaneous Pneumothorax
Hai guy, shahril here. I’ve been warded since 1st april bcoz of spontaneous pneumothorax. after two weeks, the wound not heal properly, and my pneumostat still bubbling if i’m cough. now, today doctor proposed me to undergone surgery (i think vats), but i’m afraid about the cost eee….so scary…
how much it cost ya?
shahril
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
hi, i have friend who face this problem. can you recommend and send me dr. joshi contact? urgently need to contact.
He has transfered out from SGH i heard.. sorry, cant help u.. I think the best is to go to SGH A&E
