Hello everyone
I was diagnosed in January and had an op to trim my right lung,they were going to take the whole bottom lobe but I have Chronic COPD so decided to trim the lung,op was a success and now have 5yrs to go,what chances are there for a reoccurrence
Hi Wales South, it’s good to hear that the operation was a success. I know it is a worry that the cancer may come back, but no one can answer that one. No 2 peoples cancer story is the same. Are you going to have regular monitoring over the next 5 years ?
