Hi
No, I have not had any pain or other issues since surgeries of colon or lung, which is why I highly recommend my doctors here in Indianapolis!
I do feel that not being obese, or diabetic, or having high blood pressure, cholesterol, etc, is a big advantage in recovery and healing.
So an otherwise healthy person should expect to have good results in procedures where no complications existed.

I often struggle somewhat in giving advice to others. Because such advice comes from the opinions that are from personal experiences.
So having had good experiences, I am bias in my opinions and feelings, which may or may not fit with the health history and circumstances of others. So I try to be cautious to a point.

You have already had a cancer that has metastasized to the lungs after a surgery and chemo.
In my thinking , that's like saying everything in the past has not proved successful, so what should the next course of action be?

I see the choice of Ablation to be the same as Chemotherapy. No doctor is going to guarantee that a cancer will be eliminated by this anymore than chemo.
And I'm not sure that Radiation is any different. Radiation can be a tough recovery and it's another wait and see .... maybe it did, maybe it didn't?

With surgery, a doctor can tell you that all of a cancer has likely been removed based on what is seen in scans and the testing of the adjoining margins. That lends itself to some evidence in what is known, not assumed.

I understand that no one can guarantee you anything where it only takes one microscopic cell not seen and all bets are off.

At least with surgery you know that all of something that has been seen has been removed. And by a skilled specialist who does this every day and can share his confidence with you that he expects a positive result!

To even consider lung surgery, you must first find that doctor that you can have confidence in after every question has been answered!
Please have that be what any and all decisions are based on!
May you find your blessing!
Paul
