AND if you read my post correctly, they said it was near 100% when I went to the damn emergency room (which was 1.5 days after waking up with the initial pain) being unable to bear the pain. If you leave it untreated, it will obviously shrivel up more and be in worse condition. So I woke up with probably a mild pneumothorax and it rapidly worsened condition over that time span. That's what happens, with you know, leaks...
You think I casually walked into the hospital? LOL.... I had most of those symptoms and I thought I was going to die at any moment, and I obviously didn't fucking walk more than 10 steps the second day.
you assumed way too much BS in your post, not a very smart way of posting, sorry bro...

Oh very nice..... NO... If you go above 35% they insert a drain, put the drain in water and it bubbles gently, they remove the tube (drain) when the lung is pushing against it, pulling the drain stresses the tissues around the lung so it makes a even stronger tissue, if the patient had other pneumos in the past on the same lung, its up to the doctor to decide if they do a Bullectomie or a thoracotomie, bullectomie is not invasive, its only 3 small holes, doesnt leave a mark. Thoracotomie they open the whole side and that leaves a big mark, if bullectomie somehow goes wrong during procedure they do thoracotomie by default. if its under 35% they decide to either send you home with a visit in 2 weeks or keep you 2 or 3 days for safety but does not require any drain or surgery. 2 weeks and your back on your feet at 100%. If your lung goes down above 70% my buddy, your are not letting a second pass between 911. you CANNOT.[/QUOTE]
Did you read my post? LOL, what the hell is this, that's like what my doctor told me a year ago, how does that have anything to do with the likelihood of my case? They didn't have the time (considering the urgency of my case) or the proper thoracic surgeon staff to give me anything but the drain the first time, then a little over a month later I got a bullectomie when it happened again, if you're at all curious, but I doubt you'll read this in detail anyways.
After this point i'm not even going to bother, your reading comprehension is horrible, my brain actually hurts reading this nonsense...

much better than 2 or even 3 months!
