Hi, I have had a Pnuemothorax, which is also commonly known as (collapsed lung) on the right side three times since January. Had the needle decompression done the first time, chest tubes in the second time and recently had the VATS surgery/bleb staple/pleurideisy done last Wednesday. Extremely painful above my right breasts too my armpit and sore in the neck area. Was just curious if those are normal symptoms
