I have to have lung surgery on Wednesday. **UPDATE**
#28

Literally got home about 10 minutes ago. Spent Wednesday and part of thursday in CCU being woken up every 15 minutes but the Anesthesia was still in my system so I really didn't care about anything.

Thursday I got moved into my own room and it was the worst day, I had two chest tubes sticking in me until today and the part that goes into you is a couple inches long, it hurts to breath and if you shift wrong they poke you and it feels like a hot cattle prod is stabbing you from the inside.

Had to do breathing exercises to re-inflate my lung and the entire experience sucked because I couldn't actually lay down to sleep, I had to prop up 5-6 pillows and try to sleep upright while not shifting and keeping my neck in a comfortable position.

So yeah, my chest is still sore but I have to keep working on my lung, tired as crap from having no sleep for the past five days, chest tubes are the worst thing I've ever experienced, and the holes where the tubes were in aren't fully closed so I have to be careful to not tear them, but I made it through, now I just have to hope I don't need this for my right lung.
