Experiences with

Lobectomy

after the Lobectomy and just wondered whether anybody else has had any problems a few years after Lobectomy ? I think when cancer is mentioned again then the niggle is there. Thank you for ' listening '. All the very best to everybody.

I'm taking 150 mg thyroxine after a partial lobectomy some years ago. Any advice greatfully received

I'm down to 2.5 mg prednisone and I feel the best I have ever been since starting on the recovery five years ago. I've been taking levothyroxine for the past 30 years and just recently had an ultrasound scan done. I was found to have two enlarged nodules with abnormal cells. After a needle biopsy

I had an open lobectomy (right lower lobe) a year ago. I've had/got pseudomonas, Klebsiella and serratia. Since surgery I have had constant wheezing, inflamed air way and tightness in my upper respiratory. I'm asthmatic and bronchiectasis was found in the lobe that was removed.

does anyone get the enhanced rate of pip for moderate copd and lung lobectomy?

Everything I've read about a lobectomy indicates a lot of pain and long recovery. I would so love to hear from others that have had this surgery and learn about their experiences. Thanks so much....

Had upper right lobectomy Aug 5. They thought it was just in the lung and i'd be 'cured'. It was also in the lymph nodes so now scheduled for my second of 4 rounds of alimta and pemetrexate nov 5. I am all alone and nobody will help me.

IIIB chemo/infection/mastectomy radiation. 2021 - MBC bone Ibrance /Faslodex 2023- primary Lung Cancer/RT upper lobectomy March 2024-progression Orserdu. May 2024- major POD bones & liver May 2024- to begin Tredolvy.

I have had hyperparathyroidism for many years and had a left thyroid lobectomy last year. My endocrinologist tested my thyroid levels in June as she suspected I might have an under active thyroid. Results in May TSH 6.67 (0.27 - 4.2) T4 10.3 (10.8 - 25.5) T3. 4.6.

Hi,After having a open lobectomy (RLL) I have had an issue with wheezing at different times if the day along with a tight chest. I was told back in November 2023 it's asthma that's causing the wheezing and I was given a different inhaler (fostair 200mg).

Following on from my previous post when I was eventually (after 6months) diagnosed with Adenocarcinoma of my lower left lobe, I had surgery 3 weeks ago to remove the lobe - called a Lobectomy.

I have alpha one amitriptysine deficiency, bronchiectasis and COPD I suffer daily real bad.Also had a lower lobe lobectomy which has caused several issues I deal with .Don't get much help from my doctors and always end up going to the hospital for it.

had a lobectomy in may 2022. Had a mass on lung. Recovery was fine Underwent chemo in august 2022 had 3 cycles. got Trimbow inhaler for COPD since having it my cough seems worse and wake up to a dry mouth each morning

I was told it could be chronic pain due to damaged nerves/ adhesions because of the Lobectomy. Two weeks later I am so confused.

Last September I had open lobectomy surgery (right lower lobe) where there was a 5cm mass prior to that it was going that I had pseudomonas and was bringing up blood for about 10 montjs with other symptoms.

15 days since my operation. I feel very tired think one reason difficulty sleeping and loss of appetite. Just thought I’d asked if anyone has any tips about how to get my appetite back ? Will it just return ? I’m not doing much exercise other than walking around the house, starting to have a walk around

My Gp records have Lobectomy listed in my records but surgeon told me he had to remove everything and couldn't save any tissue. This was January 1995.

Hi,I was wondering if anyone has had a lobectomy for bronchiectasis and were cured or at least felt a lot better? I had an open lobectomy on 1st September but that was because there was a 5cm mass in my right lower lobe and I had been coughing up blood in my sputum since December 25th 2022.

I had my top right Lobectomy in 2018 and have had Xray's every year but my wonderful, Thoracic Consultant hasclear st sent me a letter to go for another Xray. I have been clear of lung cancer ( yay ! ) since 2018 so why is he requesting another Xray?

I was on Fentanyl since the lung cancer and Lobectomy which is 6 year's ago now . My leg's and toes get so painful and the pain from the vertebral fracture's and my stomach is worse since stopping the Fentanyl. I would be grateful...again..for any advice.
