Why did you have a lobectomy? Were you told you'd be cured?

Hello @jewels85, Different doctors will certainly have different plans. and sometimes plans change. I wonder if they went into surgery thinking that you would be one stage but found that you were actually 3B. Did you have other treatment after the surgery; chemo or radiation? It's been almost a year now, how well did you heal from the surgery?

yes, they had done a lymph node biopsy the month before. Negative. So they thought Stage 1 but then showed in nodes when they took them out during lobectomy. It was done 6 weeks ago. I am not healed. Have stitches coming out of my back again today!! Told my PMP to just leave them. I have asked for pallaitive care. I can't get chemo which was the plan. I don't like the doctor because he gave me 2 side effects of chemo and that was it. I asked to switch doctors. They won't let me so nobody called back so i can't get chemo. So pallaitive care came last week and said i needed assisted living and then said she might call adult protective services on me. Wild. I give up. I must've pissed someone powerful off is all i can say. so wondering how long i live and how i die and what to do now. spinning. Nothing was done right in my case
