Hi christie
ive had no response to a couple of my posts from time to time. I really don’t think it’s deliberate, sometimes maybe just on the wrong page. Please don’t give up ! This forum is super helpful and members will give you any support they can. Try reposting on here
Good morning lovely people.
2nd CT scan on 17 April this tear (R upper lobectomy Dec. 2022) recent scan has shown my middle lobe is compressed. Having bronchial lavage on the 23rd May. Letter to GP from consultant described it as possible middle lobe syndrome, GP unsure what this is. Regular chest infections but one in December this year & a few weeks ago really floored me. Throat is quite raw & my voice is quite hoarse. Anyone able to suggest any ideas on what's going on with me ?
Hi Christie.k sometimes it takes a little while for people to respond. The forum is for people to share their own experiences, so if they have not had surgery they would not have that experience to share with you.
I have answered your post this morning, and I can see you have also spoke to Excavator, who has had surgery himself.
I think you should give it time, people are here to support each other through their cancer journey, but if you feel it is not for you I understand.
The Macmillan support line will still be available to you if you want to speak to someone one to one. 0808 808 00 00
Hope you decide to stick around x
