Went through the thoracic surgery but something happened and again have no idea as to what. Was drugged out of my mind and now we are into over 2 1/2 months of in and out of hospitals. Was kept so drugged that they had put me on palliative care and thrown me into icu . Still food smells make me sick and still no bowel movement and then put on letrozole and then was called to oncologist office and given blood test. Was then put on d3 but was never told I am anemic

Dealing with complications and confusion after surgery can feel overwhelming, especially when communication about your care seems unclear. Many patients in this community have shared similar experiences with post-surgical challenges and the frustration that comes with not fully understanding what's happening with their treatment plan. Consider writing down your questions before your next appointment and asking your medical team to explain each medication and test result - you have every right to understand your care plan and current health status.
