So i just got back from my 2nd embolization surgery. the 1st one was back in feb of this year. after this one i have alot of chest pain if i breathe in too much and i dont quite remember that from the 1st one. anyone here have a pulmonary embolization as well and have this pain. im on oxcycodne but it seems to be making me a bit nausous i was wondering if anyone experienced this post op pain from this type of surgery.
thanks - Mike 23 y/o male cfrd

Hi Mike,
I also had 2 embolizations ( 3 years ago) My first one left me with some pain, especially when i ate something. It hurt when it ( the food) got past my throat and got down further towards the middle of my chest. It took a few days but it finally went away. I dont recall having pain when i took too deep of a breath, Then again i have been trying to forget the whole experience for 3 years now. What you are feeling is most likely temporary ( after all they were just poking around in your lungs), have you told your doctor about it?

no i havent i didnt notice it so much with the pain meds now that im home no more morphone just oxycodone so i need to let them know
good news is i think they got all the problem areas this time i felt some bleeding during the emolization and told them where and they took care of it hope this holds up better than the 1st one
