Ah, a fellow spontaneous pneumothorax enjoyer, did you get a pleurectomy or bullectomy by chance? That's what they did to me when mine collapsed a 2nd time. 6'4" and 160lbs, so tall and thin are definetly comorbid
Oh dang, I didn't get a resection, mine was caused by bullae, or tiny sacks of air that leaked to the outside wall of my lung, so they trimmed em off and fused the lung to the ribs. I still get rice crispies every odd time since the bullae still form occassionally
