Aspergillus post lung transplant.
Hi all, Haven’t been in touch for a while now but mercifully still here. Lungaversary last month which I can only describe as a stormy recovery. Trichosporon infection In clamshell wound delayed discharge by 4 weeks. 1 month in ICU with terrifying hallucinations which still haunt me today. Sternum

Bronchoscopy
My mom was diagnosed with pneumonia 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately 10 days of antibiotics were ineffective. She had a bronchoscopy today and while waiting for results, I was wondering if anybody else was in the same situation and what did the bronchoscopy show?

I’m perplexed about Pluvicto
With a partially
collapsed
lung
, breathing is a challenge; he uses oxygen when he needs it. Referred to OSU pulmonary interventionist to evaluate inserting stent into lungs to open airways. Having surgery August 16 to remove a bursa sac on an elbow due to repeat infections. Zowie!

Rib pain after breathing test
On 22nd I took respiratory test. Ribs in area of LUNG SURGERY in 2019 are very painful upon effort; front, side, and back. I'm taking tylenol and rubbing creams with little improvement. Any one experience this after test?

Exercise post surgery
Hi, I appreciate there are other more serious matters of concern but I would just like to know what types of exercise and when you started after lung surgery. I am bored with physio and less motivated to walk everyday!

gabapentin
I had a lung operation in January to remove dead tissue ( left lobe). I was prescribed gabapentin capsules but whenever I take them I have shortness of breath my chest feels a little tight and also I feel like I want to cough. I stop taking them and things start to settle down again especially after

Lung cancer
Diagnosed with lung cancer very high in lung, Doctor says it's very difficult to get for biopsy, and then tells me that as I weigh 130 kg I might not be suitable for radiotherapy, is this right?

Lung Transplantation
Hello, I just wanted to ask the community whether they had been through the process of being assessed for a lung transplant or not? What was your experience with the assessment? Did you get accepted as a transplant candidate? What condition did you have that led you to get assessed? Where their any

Hi, Dad’s oncologist has stopped the Erlotinib as last scan in Jan showed tumour growth. Private Liquid biopsy result just back, mutation EGFR p.L747_T751de. No treatment offered by NHS, oncologist thinks will be more harmful to dad but how does he know for sure? I read some PubMed data that restarting

Immunotherapy
I'm just starting out on immunotherapy and would like to share experiences with others on the same drug. - Pembrolizumab. I'm due my 2nd treatment tomorrow. For someone who avoids taking anything stronger than paracetamol, it's all a bit scary. I haven't met anyone with lung cancer yet, and other

Lung Transplant + Fermented Foods
Hello, I have a question for lung transplant recipients: are you allowed to eat anything fermented? I may need a transplant in the near future, but I have a histamine problem which is controlled with antihistamines and DAO tablets. The problem is that the DAO tablets are essentially fermented peas

Although Oncologist thought a standard
