                        Hi Amy, I had 2 SP's in the last four months.  They wanted to do surgery on me, but I refused it because I get deathly sick on medication.  How bad was your lung collapsed?  Mine was 25% both times.  I am currently seeing a accupuncturist and taking a herb formula he recommended.  Have you considered non-traditional forms of treatment to try to help with the pain.
