ain't so good........

Yesterday was bad and today was worse. The swelling and fluid build up is going down. I no longer have a XXL beach ball belly but a XL one. That is good along with the coughing spells subsiding in frequency and length. The downside is there is a burning pain sensation just under the bottom of my right rib cage. The same pain is in my left boob extending under my armpit out to the site of the lung tube. My boob is sensitive and it hurts a lot when I move or bend over. The pain under my rib cage is much worse. It hurts just sitting and with small movements but when I cough, I want to put a gun in my mouth. I get a sharp, intense burning pain when I cough. I can feel the cough pressing a 'lump' and the lump doesn't like being bothered. The fluid build up is right along the bottom of my rib cage, with more on the left than on the right. I have been sitting at my desk doing nothing trying not to cause a coughing fit. Pressing on the 'lump' helps some knocking down the pain but it is still…
