Hi everyone
I'm new to the group, new to all of this.
I'm due to have a frozen lung biopsy in a few weeks on a nodule that is 15mm and looks suspicious.
I will only find out whether is cancer and whether I've had some of my lung removed when I wake up from the anesthetic.
I'm having this done, miles away from home and am absolutely petrified.
Anyone else been through this?
