Hi Cynthia, I think you will find this group very helpful if you decide to stick around. Can you let us know what kind of lung surgery you are having. I am 72 and had a lower rt lobectomy in mid Feb of this year. Not sure if my information is what you are looking for. There are lots of folks here who likely have something similar to what you will be having. Post op is very different for many people. What type of lung surgery are you having?
