Glad its gone and you was okay with it. I felt the same, but tried to keep my eyes averted.

I saw my surgeon today and surgery is on 10th October. Will be opened up as its a big tumour. Surgeon was honest and open about it all, but confident removing the top lobe will get rid, though might take middle lobe if its spread there.

All the best for your diagnosis and results.

Best of luck, Ianhick - that's your right lung then which has 3 lobes as the left lung has 2. the right lung is slightly bigger than the left. I had upper left lobectomy through open surgery (thoracotomy) in Dec 2010 as keyhole (VATS/minimally invasive) wasn't around then. I was back at work and swimming by end march 2011. this information may help with any questions/milestones etc.
