My 2nd spontaneous pneumothorax

2017-12-26 02:21:52
Since my first one 3 years ago I have had a bad belching problem. this week I was in the hospital with a tube in my chest and I didn't burp much at all. I just got home last night and the burping started again and it hurts to take a deep breathe I'm scared the lung may have dropped again. are these two things somehow connected and do I go back?
