I was diagnosed as stage 1A lung cancer and had 1/3 of my lobe removed on 1/3/2016. Can someone tell me how long it takes to fully recover from this type of surgery?

Question
I have a question maybe someone could shed some insight on.. my dad has coughed up a little bit of blood mixed in with some mucus yesterday and today. He has been coughing a little on and off since he was diagnosed but hasn't had any blood in it since probably late June. I am planning on calling his

GP does not do loading dose as per BNF guidelines due to pressure on appointment availability !1
Hi all, Finally had a reply from my letter to GP questioning why my loading dose of 6 jabs was over 6 weeks, not 2 weeks as per guidelines. ( I enclosed copies of EVERY treatment protocol ) and reminded him I had tested positive for IFA antibodies and Parietal Antibodies, and had neuro symptoms even

I'M NEW AND DESPERATELY NEED FEEDBACK. My mom, I believed was killed in the REHAB but now they saying she had lung cancer
I know you may not have symptoms of lung cancer. But is it possible to have stage 4 lung cancer and not need any oxygen and have all normal blood work. They did a chest scan on mom and saw a mass in lung, but the hospital oncologist didn't feel with certainty that is was cancer. They also diagnosed

Lung Transplant Assessment
Can anyone let me know what to expect when I have my one day assessment at Harefied in February. I am due to have blood tests, X-rays and other tests. I had been told that you normally have three days of tests. Does this mean if I get the ok from these tests I will then have to go back for three days

I'm new to this, please be gentle
So starting at the beginning I was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2014 at 23, then I had a stem cell transplant which is where it all went wrong; Being on all sorts of medication including steroids made me gain weight, then loose it, then gain it again; this wasn't helped by the fact I wasn't able to do

Lung Cancer Warrioress
I'm new here. Was diagnosed with stage 3b NSCLC in January 2011 and it returned in my other lung December 2013. Currently, I'm stage 4 but not on any meds and see my oncologist on a 6 month basis. Like some, I become anxious about cancers return as I never really had any symptoms either time. Any suggestions

Has anyone looked into doing stem cell transplant? My neurologist told me that they wouldn't accept me because of my age 48 and because I have had MS for 9 years, think I want to try, this disease is so frustrating.

Wife of a lung cancer patient
My husband was diagnosed in February of 2012. He is doing well under the treatments given by his doctors and has learned some things that I think may be helpful to others if I share them here. I am also interested in learning from others who are dealing with this disease.
