I got shot 2 months ago on june 17 the bullet hit the middle of my back on the right side puncturing my lung?

Question

Continues.. Of course I had to stay there for like 7 days to be stabilized because since the bullet 45 caliber handgun was what I was shot with thats what the police said because they found the gunshells on the floor anyway. I had to have a surgical procedure were they put in a chest tube and drain out the blood out my lung because it was filled with blood and collapsed my lung.. The bullet is still inside me some how its in the middle of my lung and kidneys im wondering will the bullet affect me in the near future? If so what can happen?

Answer 1

if the bullet was going to cause u any more harm by staying in then they would have removed it... so since it is still there im guessing that it is going to be ok

Answer 2

I am so sorry to hear that.  I do not know how it will affect you physically, but I can certainly tell you that psychologically this can affect you for the rest of your life.  Please ask around for counseling referrals for therapists that specialize in traumatic incidents so you do not end up with Post traumatic Stress disorder.  I hope they found the shooter and can prosecute this person.  It will help you to see that justice is served.  I hope you get better very soon.
