questions to ask
Jo, I just read again your note about 2 month recovery time(the 1.5 to 3yrs that Anne emailed me makes me worried), that is what I am hoping for if I have to do it. I see the surgeon on Monday, can you email me with some questions I should ask?
will I be able to lift 15 pounds afterwards?(laptop computer bag)
thanks for your help,
Rob
From what I can recall...
I think for rib resections of the first rib, it is about a 2 month ?? recovery for return to daily activities.
I've seen hospital stays mentioned from 3 -7 days, longer if complicating factors.
There are so many variables it is really hard to compare though.[/QUOTE]
