Hi Laura I just had a biopsy Monday! It was a good experience. Staff, Doctors were great I was fully under so woke up back on stretcher nice and comfy. I have major back trouble they went out of their way to make sure they propped up my legs and put a hard pad under my lumbar area this was on the operating table. Bad news is as I suspected it is cancer just starting my journey so don't know much yet. See Oncology on the 15th of this month and a surgeon on the 29th. Wishing you all the luck and yours is benign. Mine is Malignant!

Please let us know what you learn. Sorry you have to deal with this but grateful to know surgery is an option.

It's tough to hear, even when you expect it. Let us know how things go on the 15th @reader0108598 🫂

Hi @reader0108598 , I'm sorry to hear that you are joining this club of lung cancer. You will learn a lot, and don't be afraid to ask any questions. It's normal to feel overwhelmed with information, decisions, and emotions. How did your oncology appointment go? You mentioned that your cancer is malignant. What area/s has it spread to? And are they still considering surgery? Do you have family/friends that can support you?
