Describe your recovery from lung NET surgery

@tomrennie yes, but all I get is, "I don't know." They say it is all rare and there is not much research, but AI seems to have a lot.

Hello @sbrown959
I think @tomrennie's suggestion (to see a palliative care doctor) is a good idea. They can help with pain management. It would be good to ask your oncology team to refer you to a palliative care team. Here is a link with information about palliative care from Mayo Clinic's website:

Here is a link to a Mayo Connect discussion group where members discuss their experiences with palliative care:

I look forward to hearing from you again. Will you post about your progress in dealing with this pain?
