Hi @loulou2023, I hope you are feeling well. Personally, I haven’t had a lobectomy, but I have had cancer in the hilar lymph nodes, and struggled to breathe and eat due to the pressure. Hopefully they get you some relief before it gets that bad. I know the human lung is amazing, and it has a way of getting the air it needs. Knowing that the pulmonary function tests were positive is a good sign.
Is your breathing being impacted at this point? How soon do they want to do the second lobectomy?

Yes, my breathing is affected. I have COPD so my breathing isn’t great. I have noticed that I am short of breath in a different way then I was previously.
