Did anyone have a missed diagnosis of NSCLC?

My segmentectomy removed 1/3 of the upper lobe of my right lung via Robotic Assisted Thoracic Surgery. I have 4 small incisions on my right side. Other than the typical post-surgery recovery - mild pain, tightness around the stitches and some rib pain - I’ve had no adverse effects and breathing is normal. Best of luck to you. Modern surgical techniques are remarkable. I also had a great thoracic surgeon at Northwestern in Chicago.

Thank you for the reply. Sounds like everything went great for you. So happy to hear that. I hope I have a similar outcome. I have a 2.6 cm nodule with ground glass around it in my lower right lobe. Pulmonologist thinks they will only need to remove part of the lobe.
Thank you for the reply. I love hearing success stories. I've been using doctor google too much.
