Sorry, I have no experience of this but I do hope things go well for him.
Best advise is to have the surgery asap and get the cancer out . Once I found out I had cancer in my lung and lymph nodes all I wanted was to get it out asap. That surgery and max radiation and 2 years chemo not only saved my life, it allowed me to actually have a life. Kind Wishes to You and your Dad, judg69
I had lobe of left lung removed in Nov 2008 - fingers crossed have had no further problems. Good luck for your father's op & I hope he'll have good result xx
So glad - all best wishes x
