Thanks for all the fast responses. It's not yet daylight here in Hawaii but I think I'll get dressed before anybody else wakes up and walk around the cul-de-sac. This website is much, much faster than the CSN, which has good content but is sluggish. Bandwidth, I guess. Appreciate the suggestions on questions for the oncologist, still looking for more.

Had an exploratory surgery 8/31 and got home 9/4 with NSCLC adenocarcinoma diagnosis, tentative Stage IIIB or IV. Will see oncologist on 9/12. Healing well, feeling much better than expected, wife and I are experienced in caregiving due to parents, we're both fine emotionally. Assembling questions for oncologist, suggestions welcome. I need exercise, but wife wants me to be very cautious, as expected. I've done an exercise routine every day for 50 years and the unused muscles are bothering me more than the incision. Any suggestions on how far I should go on the exercise? Stationary bike? Arm and leg exercises lying flat on back? Other? Thanks and Aloha!
