A member asked:
I was done talc pleurodesis procedure 2 weeks ago but now i'm having breathing problem. what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It means the procedure likely fails and fluid accumulates again. You need a chest X-ray to confirm or rule out the recurrence of pleural effusion. Good luck.
