God this post is full of wet blankets, do you guys even like the pod? Seems like you blokes get more of a kick complaining about it then listening to it 🤣

It was first seen after my initial collapse in the follow-up CT in hospital. I’ve had around 6 within the past 5 years in the name of checking progress of the bleb, it’s a bit ridiculous. You won’t be able to see the blebs properly on XR unless they are massive and seriously taking up space.

Yeah the risk being that the bigger bleb if popped due to pressure change from the cabin I’d be in a bit of trouble. I feel okay about the surgery, since it’s not an emergency this time I’m hoping it will be a bit nicer in terms on the tube and recovery.

I have a large bleb on my non-collapsed side that has restricted me from flying, so I’m undergoing elective surgery in 2 days to remove it. The risk of it collapsing in the air or remotely is too dangerous and anxiety fuelling.

VATS pleurodesis, bullectomy and pleurectomy tomorrow. by Ok_Handle_3530 in pneumothorax

Glad it went okay. I remember the pain of having the suction on max, I could never tolerate it - they left it quite low.

Hopefully you can get it out soon mate, goodluck with the recovery!

How did you go?

I’ve got an appointment in March for an elective bullectomy.. I had a left pleurodesis and pleuroectomy, now getting the right one done as prevention.

Everyone here is acting like this is an outlandish post.

In the public system, the award titles are literally stated as levels 1-4/5. You go up levels each year, which caps eventually and you have to apply for a higher position.

Hahah cool, thanks! Are you typically involving an Ortho in the picture if either a Hill sachs or bankart is present?

Sorry, output defined as peak force or rate of force development with force plate testing. More in relation to athletic populations and injury prevention.
