I had my lower right lobe removed and recovered very well. Of course all surgery is a pain, but I was up and strolling the hospital halls the second day after my surgery, and actually felt very well within a month.
THEN I had radiation and chemo and felt awful.
I too was at Moffitt hosp., and have all the faith in the world in the Dr's there.
Keep the faith.
My prayers, hugs, and kisses go to both of you,
Barb
