It's my first time posting. I had my left lung removed on June 25th. Adecarcinoma T2N1M0.
I have a bad cold. My first one since the operation. I am wondering what kind of otc medication I should take. It started with a sore throat on Wednesday. I've got a headache every now and then. My nose is congested but I can blow it. I cough and get chills every now and then also. My temperature has been to 100F at times. I'm more out of breath than usual but I think it's understandable because of this cold.
I'm wondering if I should go see a doctor and if so then when?
I'm suppose to have a cataract removed on Monday, do you think it's still a good idea or should I postpone it until my cold is over?
