Hello @debraann, sorry to hear that you need a lobectomy. Is the surgery in response to a lung cancer?
If yes, join us in the lung cancer group, where you'll find many members that have had a variety of lung surgeries.

Welcome @zewducrawn, Mayo Connect is a group of patients that can offer their own experience. We are not medical experts or staff. Coughing after two years has to be difficult for you. Have you had a scan of your lungs recently, or asked your doctor about the cough?
