Fuck , there was one ? I ' m here just pressing f 5 <| sep |> Thanks , Craig ! We tried , but the google search gave us tons of trash with broken links , prepaid review sites and submission services . I ' ll look in the other subs seems that startups is not relevant enough for mobile app startup questions <| sep |> I started to call bullshit until i noticed you said sales , lol . <| sep |> Here goes I had my first collapsed lung 3 years ago . 20 % collapse . They held me for 24 hours in the hospital , gave me oxygen , and let me go . Then it happened again in August this years . 25 % collapse . Same outcome . No tubes . Just oxygen . The surgeon said I should probably get the procedure but didn ' t press it . I ' m 35 years old . 5 foot 11 , 160 pounds . I ' m very thin , but not anorexic looking . I lift weights , run a lot , have never smoked in my life . It took me months to decide to go through with the surgery because these two episodes have been so minor and if I knew it would never be any worse than that , I wouldn ' t go under the knife . But I don ' t want a much worse episode to take place . I don ' t want to be in a remote area and have both my lungs collapse . On the other hand , I ' m scared as f about surgery never been under the knife except for my wisdom teeth and about this surgery and recovery in particular . I ' ve been extremely torn by this decision . I ' m very physically active , work out a lot . I ' m just a very busy , active , hardworking person in general . I don ' t want to go through with something that will slow me down permanently . Have other people experienced this surgery ? What was the pain like ? How long did the recovery take ? When were you back to being able to do strenuous activity ?
