I have a school mate who is same age as me. He had lobectomy 3 years ago. I don’t know the reason of surgery but he recovered very well. Maybe lobectomy can help you too. I think you should consult your doctor. After 18 month Voriconazole treatment the fungus has been confined to the ball,this may be the best time to do it.

I've seen 8 Doctors and surgeons. Already had a failed resection (no fun, all the pain with no gain). My lung has adhered to chest wall causing an elevated risk for a lobectomy.
As long as voriconazole (or Cresemba if needed) maintains my fairly decent quality of life, I'll keep the status quo.
