Hi Everyone, I'm new to the site. I I was diagnosed with lung cancer in Dec 2012 and had an upper left lobectomy in Jan 2013 - have had at least 1 scare per year since then with 'suspicious' things on scans etc. but so far, so good, no re-occurence. I also have moderate copd and asthma - yay a triple whammy :) - but doing fairly well for the most part so consider myself fortunate to be able to still do some of the things I enjoy doing. Have read some interesting and helpful posts - thank you - and hopefully will be able to contribute too in the future with something that may be useful to someone.

Hi Jaynair, what a lovely name.Welcome to the site. I am similar to yourself but I had a right lung upper lobectomy in Jan 2013 on.Nottingham. I sometimes have severe copd alongside of asthma but at the moment I have crept into moderate. Like you cancer wise I remain well. I have to go now, busy day ahead. Dentist, shopping & hairdresser. Rest up tomorrow. X

Thank you for the lovely welcome everyone :).

I've been to the coast today for a paddle - I do love the warmer weather but it's a lot easier to tolerate with a cool sea breeze :).

Hope you've all had a good day.

Hi Jaynair,

Love the name!

So glad that you survived the lung cancer. Moderate COPD doesn't have to progress. Just keep doing what your doing. So good to read a positive post re LC.

Please look after yourself.
