James,
This sounds like a mechanical problem probably not related to anything
silver is designed to help. The only therapy I know of that might help is
acupuncture as this type of therapy is able to affect physical function of
organs and systems. Drinking highly oxygenated water might be of some help as
well.
Best of luck.

Subject: CS>Help with...
Hi everybody. Sorry I haven't said much lately, but I've been having
problems that CS doesn't seem to help. I just got out of the hospital 2 weeks
ago (did 6 days in there) due to a spontaneous pneumothorax (which is medical
terms for a lung collapsing without any reason in particular. For those that
are learned in the field, actual reason is blebs). I did have a chest tube in
me for the time I was there, but I didn't opt for having the surgery where they
go in and actually fix the problem (they basically cut, staple and glue your
lung to the lung wall). To make a long story short, for the past couple of
days I've had the same symptoms that I had before, and before going into a very
scary situation (the whole hospital rigmarole) once again, I thought I would
see if anybody here had any suggestions. I've done some lookups on the net,
and almost everywhere says that surgery is the only real option. Does anybody
know of any less evasive options for this? I'm gonna stick by the computer for
a few more hours and hope for suggestions, then call and schedule an x-ray,
which I think I already know the outcome of. If you don't here from me for a
couple of weeks, you'll know the outcome as well ;)
