Athletics After Lobectomy
Hi, Due to a stage one neuroendicrine carcinoma nodule I am exactly three months post surgery for a lower left lobectomy. This was found in a scan and I had no symptoms. I am a triathlete and started training as soon as I could. Both my surgeon and pulmonologist told me to do whatever I could. I participated

Secretome of pleural effusions associated with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and malignant mesothelioma: therapeutic implications.

Discouraged
I am new to this section. I have been involved with the lung cancer. I had lung surgery 6 years ago. Last summer I was diagnosed with colon cancer. I had surgery, then chemo. Just 3 months after finishing, my cea levels went up. A scan revealed involvement of 3 lymph nodes. I was started on Keytruda

Remission! Then what?
In 2009, I had a upper right lobe lobectomy. Simple, stayed the Lahey Clinic for about a week. The nursing staff was great, my wish was their command. I could not have asked for better. The first 5 years were simply a piece of cake. No meds, continued physical activity with no changes. I was cancer free

Worried about silicosis
I'm new here and concerned, worried, paranoid, call it what you will. 5days ago I cut a 2m channel in a plaster wall wfor some cables with an angle grinder. I did have a small paper mask but in hindsight it was not appropriate. There was dust everywhere. I showered straight after the work but since then

Update Cough
Like mentioned previously my mom has had cough attacks since her lobectomy 3 months ago. They started 2 weeks ago. She says her throat gets scratchy and she panics when she coughs and her eyes get teary. She fears this so much, it mostly happens when she is in cold places like stores. She hates going
