macroprolactinoma
Mine was discovered during a PET scan after
lobectomy
when I was told "here's something there that shouldn't be there." I'd be interested in contacting someone in a similar situation.

Looking for a Surgeon
Hi, I have a fungal ball in my lung and have been told that a
lobectomy
is my only option after antifungal drugs have not worked. Can anyone recommend a pulmonary surgeon in the USA that has experience with aspergilloma / fungal ball in lung/ CPA? Thank you

Cabergoline
Mine was discovered during routine staging following a
lobectomy
. It's being treated by an endocrinologist (!) with Cabergoline. At the moment it's stable, but would like to hear from anyone in a similar situation.

Left Upper VATS Lobectomy Surgery 10/29
My Father is going in for this procedure, (stage I lung cancer) and i was hoping to get some inside information on some things we could do for him at home that will make his recovery easier. Should we get adjustable Mattress, or a self lifting recliner for him? what can we expect?? thanks

Lost my mom to aspergillosis
She had a
lobectomy
. In 2009 it came back but she needed only radiation. Since then she's been clean. In 2013 she was diagnosed with aspergillosis. Over time though, this fungal ball, took a toll on her body. She was on voriconazole for two years.

Lobectomy
Today's the day I go into hospital, I have
Lobectomy
of upper lobe left lung tomorrow. I am so nervous now and will be glad when it is all over and I am on the road to recovery. I do have COPD so I know I will never be free of that but hope the SOB will be a bit better. Love Jan xx

Scared of lobectomy next week
I have been scheduled for a
lobectomy
(upper right lobe) and scared. A pulmonologist told me I had nothing to fear and suggested repeat scan in 6 - 8 months but to not worry- it was nothing.

Shocked & scared & confused now
I have lung cancer for which I've had a
Lobectomy
on my righthand side. The tumour was attached to two sides of my pleura & was 7cm. My surgeon wasn't going to undertake surgery if it tumour was attached to the pleura but did so as he said I wouldn't have long if he didn't.

VATS Lobectomy looming....
Well, all going well, this time next week I'll be minus 20% of my lungs. It's all happened really quickly after a very severe infection in January, the wheels were set in motion with the same surgeon who implanted my valves (they didn't work :( ) last year. Now it's LVRS (lung volume reduction surgery

Lobectomy middle and bottom lobe right lung.r 5 days
Hi Everyone, I had surgery on March 17th to remove large cancer tumour from middle lobe of right lung they also had to take most of the bottom lobe as well. I had a pretty rough time for a while morphine didn't work on me so ended up having morphine substitute, ketamine, and four other drugs to help
