Chemo for pT1a? Also two independent (primary) cancers

@lls8000 I am now recovering in my room. Time passes so incredibly slowly (been counting minutes for over 3 hours now).

I must say that painwise, I am actually better than after VATS. Immediately after surgery I was nauseous but pain was 0 or 1, less than after VATS.

Upper lobe hilus was positive and so was at least one mediastinal node.

They brought too much food for me. My burps are way louder than before and I wonder if its because of mediastinal node removal.

Wishing time passed faster. Its 9:30 PM and im not sleepy. Tired but not sleepy.

@janar, I'm sure it's hard to get your mind on anything but the else right now. Any distraction will help. Do you have a book to read or movie that you can watch? That may help pass some time. Resting is helpful for healing. I'm so thankful that your surgery went well, that it is behind you, and you can focus on healing. The next few days will be difficult, but then hopefully each day can get a little easier.
Are they doing additional tissue testing on the cancer that they did find? There are many types of lung cancer, and treatments can vary based on those types.

@janar, how is recovery going? Are you home now? How are you doing?
