Further to my post last week I have now had the lobectomy as the tumour showed cancer cells. Am in Papworth which is an amazing state of the art heart and lung hospital. They r looking after me very well! Full histology due in a couple of weeks. I believe that this was caught early so am remain g positive!
Love Clare x

Hi Clare, So pleased you have got that out of the way. Hope your recovery is smooth and uneventful and you get positive news when you get your results.
Dear Clare, Iβm really glad you are being treated well ! Really hope the results come back well and like you say, caught early which is an encouraging sign.
Wishing you a good recovery. It's great you're being well looked after. And nice to know that you're in a good hospital, that makes so much difference. Thinking of you and sending you lots of good wishes π
So pleased to hear that all went well for you. Like mine thankfully yours has been caught early which is good. You really are in the very best place for this sort of thing and they will continue to follow up to monitor you. You have every reason to remain positive. Plenty of rest during your recuperation when you get home. Love Sue xxx πΉπΊπ»πΌπ·πΈπ
Hello claracola, you sound very optimistic that the tumour has been caught early, every best wish for a good result and positive treatment if needs be. Will be thinking of you x
Hi Clare, so pleased all is going well and you are being treated so wonderfully. It certainly seems like youβre in the right place and being looked after so well. I hope that you continue to improve and are soon well on the way to recovery. Best wishes, Christine. X
Hi Clare, thatβs good news . My niece has just had a lobectomy , and I think the whole family is still in shock as they didnβt expect it. But everything I have been able to read shows removing the lobe gives the very best chance for non reoccurrence and good future health. I would be really grateful to hear more about your recovery . I had suggested my niece join this group and find advice and support but donβt think she has had the time to do so. Sorry I am waffling here, but send very best wishes and love your positive approach. Hope you are soon back to good health . X
Hello, yes it's quite a major procedure. I am still in hospital but hoping to go home tomorrow. Like your niece I am now, awaiting full histology which takes a couple of weeks apparently. My recovery is going well so far. I think u r right when u say full lobectomy gives best outcome. Pls feel free to ask any questions and mention to your niece to join this group too as it amazing! Love Clare.
Great that all went well. Wishing you full recovery . Suggest you request an Aerobika or other breathing exerciser. I used mine ( and still do years later ) when watching tv, on my I pad or just whenever. It will absolutely be very beneficial to both regaining breathing capability , and also helping to slightly enlarge the size/capacity of your remains lobe(s). Again, All Best Wishes, judg69
I hope that the surgery has done the trick and that you will soon be feeling better. Glad that you are in such good hands and that it seens to have been caught early. Best wishes, Alberta xxx
