Hi, Had lobectomy, with middle section of lung along with 7 lymph nodes, removed, getting heat attacks.
As it is a major surgery, and there is a clot, there are plenty of possibilities of the infection, especially nosocomial, that might be the reason for these heat attacks. If the excretions are tested culture and sensitivity test and treated accordingly, you will be fine. Thank you.
