    Can’t you ring up your usual doctor to ask? Or well, I guess you’d need to call a lung specialist, but they ought to be able to answer that, no? Or your surgeon who did the surgery.

      Well, I have an ENT that performed the surgery, but he’s not available overnight for questions.

        No the surgeon isn’t available to talk to, but you can call and speak directly to a ENT department nurse for after surgery issues. This is a far better option than ANY search engine answer.

        Use the right tool for the job.

          They weren’t available at 3:00 AM either. Which is when I was looking it up.

            Still the wrong tool. You either can wait and call when they are there or you need the ER at 3AM. And evidently you could wait.
