Information sharing ?
What if my rib had been broken and caused a
collapsed
lung
? Maybe I would not be so able. What do others here think?

Questions about End-Stage Emphysema
Late last summer we were involved in a scooter accident (I think he passed out) where he broke 8 ribs and got a
collapsed
lung
. We toughed all that out and after 3+ months and getting off a vent and having a trac removed, he came home.

Stage 4 lung cancer
Hi Everyone! I'm on here on behalf of my partner, Jim, age 71. He was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer in January of this year and has been referred for chemotherapy but has heard a lot of bad things about it. He has stopped smoking and subtituted cigarettes with 10% CBD Vape which he uses frequently

Dad has advanced Lung Cancer.
One
lung
has
collapsed
completely and the other has cancer in it. Over the last couple of weeks there has been a noticeable deterioration in his health and appearance, he is dreadfully breathless with any exertion at all, even walking to the kitchen and he can barely manage to wash himself.

Husband with Stage 4 lung cancer
My husband feels very weak. Does anyone have any suggestions to help him feel stronger or is this how it is going to be? He was diagnosed a little over a year ago. Has had Chemo and is now on Opdivo.

Lobotomy right top lung lobe
I am 72 and had robot-assisted surgery on 3/20/18. While I was in the hospital 2 days I did not experience any problems during my stay, my only problem since has been a shortness of breath and feeling tired. Has anyone else had this problem and how long did it last?

Getting back up and running
Earlier this month I braved my first run since my pneumothorax back in January. Unsurprisingly it was considerably slower and more difficult than immediately prior to the collapse but it felt great to be back out there again. Psychologically it's a huge lift as it's a sign that I'm getting stronger

Just been to see my consultant.
Just been to see my respritory consultant, he asked me about having a lung transplant, this was a surprise as I didn't think I would ever be offered one. I will have to go to Newcastle for tests, I'm not worried. I know it's not gaurnteed be the offer is there. I'm also being assessed for home oxygen

Report on the 2018 Lung Cancer Leadership Conference
“Lung Cancer Leadership Conference” - that is an intriguing title for a conference. Free to Breathe has held this conference for several years. The event was not offered in 2017, as Free to Breathe and the Lung Cancer Research Foundation (LCRF) merged, but it was back this year, and I was invited to

Strength in numbers
A couple of weeks ago I visited the BLF Direct Helpline team up in Liverpool as part of my induction training after joining the BLF in December. I was enormously impressed by everything that I saw and what struck me the most was just how passionate, friendly and hard-working the whole team are. Their

A picture with a moan
Aria is back in the garden, a sign of spring and better days to come! Have you been watching the Hospital documentary on BBC2? Awful to see how they must juggle with beds and cancellations, such a waste of human life. When you think the NHS has made an agreement with a Calais hospital because hip and
