I Had A Biopsy Which Resulted In A Chyle (?)

I had a biopsy which resulted in a chyle (?) leak into my lungs and had to have chest tube inserted. This leak resulted in three weeks hospitalization after which is subsided. Since the chest tube has been removed, I have had this feeling of something curling under my rib cage and this sensation has been consistent since October 2015; it is now May 2016. There is always discomfort and the medication prescribed does nothing for the discomfort. I keep asking for cat scan but no one seems to take me seriously.
