Thank you so much Scott ! Yes they collapsed my husbands lung to get to the tumour also. After the surgery, they both collapsed which was very frightening and he was in ICU for a few days. He had a great surgeon, young also. In the states they seem to automatically give you a J tube…we weren’t given the option in the beginning, I wish we had looking back now but initially he was fine, even started to gain a little. It’s 6 months since surgery now and he’s really losing. We are staying positive over the cancer, but the weight loss is a worry. Thankyou for txting x
