  1. No I’m not on any meds or inhalers. My Dr actually was glad I was exercising.
  2. One day. I’ve never considered myself a victim in life. I will always be a survivor.
  3. I had part of my left lung removed 10/4/2021 at UCSF. My appt. for Ct and blood panel in Feb. 2022 was clear as I was also cleared in July of this year from a CT w/contrast and another blood panel. My surgeon told me he is sure he got it all back in Oct. and i’d have to wait for the staging to know what would happen. It came back clear in Dec. and I did not need any chemo or radiation but wanted me in a study. My nodes were clear and cancer did not perforate the lung lining. It was contained to upper left area. Of course my breathing was going to be affected by all this trauma of surgery and the rest of my body due to major drugs and cutting into my nerves. I’ve done quite well but have leftovers of symptoms i’ve never had in my life. I choked and vomited a cup and half liquids four nights ago. It scared me. I have found the symptoms to be related to bronchorrhea. I have had all the signs of acid reflux since March, something Ive never had. Last two days I’ve done the gerd diet guidelines and feel much better. No acidic foods or drinks. I did have shortness of breath but not as much as I did have a few days ago. I do have little puffs of air come out of my mouth at any given time and wondered what the heck? I tweaked my knee and had to quit exercising. I was walking 3/4 of mile in 15 mins. @3.0 mph. I am going back to gym in morning after a three week break. I have another surgery (prolapse) coming up on Nov. 4th, a sleep clinic in Oct. and this is where I’m at now. Looking fir others who and what they have experienced. Thank you. I hope this answers ?’s. Sherry
  4. I’m new on here and it hasn't been a year since surgery. I am getting those little puffs of air that are not voluntary at all. Been wondering what they are caused from! I go to a sleep apnea appt. next. Maybe they know.
  5. I am replying because I don’t know 50% of file needs completing.
  6. Oct 4 2022 will be one year for me. I am in a study. Diagnosed with non-small lung cancer.After removal of upper left lobe for tumor found and donation for research, I am now having symptoms I never had. My curiosity is at an all time high to find and learn from others their experiences. The latest was an experience in choking and losing my breath after a tremendous amount of fluid regurgitated. I’d say a cup and half. I started a diet for gerd the next day and fluid seems to have decreased. So what is going on? I’m lost.
