Thoracic Endo - advice needed
Hi, I’m currently dealing with Thoracic Endo and could really use some advice from anyone else struggling with it. I had VATs surgery last year to treat a catamenial pneumothorax, but air still seems to be getting through holes in my diaphragm. My Thoracic surgeon has suggested having more major surgery

persistent pneumothorax
I finally had my procedure last Wednesday due to uncertain recent pet /ct changes ( had r lower lobe lobectomy and r upper wedge 5 1/2 years ago) at the scar site of upper. Bronch was completed with insignificant findings but Tumor board recommended to go in for surgery. Great news following surgery

I got my lung diagnosis after an excruciating wait, and it was a shock!
Hi there! I made a post earlier in the year about waiting for my VATS biopsy results. My experience was very unusual, but if it helps anyone else in future, I figured it would be useful posting it. Last year I was having palpitations, and was sent to A&E just as a precaution. I had a CT scan done

Heart issues with GCA
I had my 3rd trip to ER last night. My second vertigo attack in 3 weeks. I suspect the antibiotics I have been given for adenoid infection. Had a CT scan of brain. No issues there. CT scan of chest showed mild dilation of ascending aorta and cardiomegaly, along with fluid around heart. BNP,

Final diagnosis uncertain - either cured or stage 4
Hello all, I hope you are as well as you can be. I am wondering if anyone has ever been in my situation. This is quite long - sorry. I have metastatic breast cancer in my bones (9 years) which have been stable for quite a few years. Routine CT picked up lung nodule - PET confirmed most likely lung

Lobectomy query
Hello, My Dad had a VATs Lobectomy earlier this week. He is doing well physically and is home. However, he is experiencing strange feelings in his chest which make him feel very anxious, making it difficult to sleep. He is not breathless, his lungs are clear and his movement/ walking is really good

Constrictive Bronchiolitis - Please Help Me
Hello, I am new here and I believe I have constrictive bronchiolitis. Here is my story: I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis in 2017 via VATS surgery. I never really understood how I got it. I originally went in to my doctor because I had bouts of GERD that woke me up at night with severe coughing

Wait time for surgical lung biopsy results
Hi there! I’ve been reluctant to join a forum as I don’t feel like a lung disease patient yet, I guess I’m in a bit of denial still. I don’t suffer from many symptoms really, and the ones I do have seem really mild compared to others. Last summer I had a CT scan on my heart which incidentally showed

VATS update for all you beautiful people
I had an upper right lobectomy on 22nd of May and wanted to thank everyone for your pre and post operative support and suggestions for making recovery easier. I’m feeling so much better now although my remaining bit of right lung seems to be making mucus. I spend a bit of time coughing and spluttering

Some of you have said you are still able to obtain the
Vantas
implant. I have been calling the manufacturer, Endo Pharma, for over a year and always been told they are not currently supplying it. Today I was told it has been decided to permanently discontinue it.
