@nannybb I found it weird this man I've seen is about same age as me he said the main surgeon was in operating room he said where the tumor is sitting is right between 2 lobes of the lung they don't no what kind of surgery I need untill they go in and have a look themselves its either 2 lobes will be removed or they can cut each lobe where tumor is and retach the lobes again I have the option to leave it there but as I age it will cause problems more infections and I might not be suitable for surgery the older i get he said I'm young healthy my lung capacity is excellent so while I'm young get it done I've asked how long will surgery take he said he didn't no could be 2 hours 5 hours he said he can't give me a date but he will he in touch so last week lung nurse rang me said the middle of Dec for surgery the surgeon was out on annual leave
