no neverr had what you had..... I have Mesothelioma in my left lung and plain old carcinoma in my right lung. I have had chemo that I was allergic to and immune therapy which made my body ache bad and radiation for the carcinoma in my right lung. nothing to be done for my left lung except to drain the fluid off several times. It keeps coming back and so needs to be drained ,more often. that doesn't hurt. sure feels better after draining and I can breathe a little better. Am on oxygen at night. Nancy
