Hi Jen:
I did have VATS SURGERY 9 years ago for non small cell lung cancer and pulmonary fibrosis. I also was tracked post surgery for a nodule.

Thank you for the advice, Linda. I went out to National Jewish and met with Dr. Huitt. After discussing with her and my local pulmonologist, I decided that lung surgery is not appropriate at this time but will reconsider if I have exacerbations. Thanks again.

Jen
