maggiesin2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I just back home from doctor's office. After a series tests, I was told there are two masses in my right lung. one ( which is on my right lower lobe) is cancerous for sure, the other ( which close to my Bronchi)isn't sure yet, and I was scheduled for a lobectomy on next Tuesday, Feb 14, my low right lobe will be removed. Sounds not bad, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KatieB Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 sounds like you have a fighting and a positive attitude! ...unless of course you're being sarcastic, which you have every right to be too.. so I'm not sure how to reply so I'll just pick the first one! If you're able to have surgery to remove the cancer, then that IS a good thing. Most people don't get the chance at a surgical cure. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers that your surgery on the 14th is a total success and that your recovery is smooth and swift. We continue to be here for you. Keep posting and keep us updated as you can. Hugs, K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaminkw Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Sounds not bad, right? Maggie, it is right that if you have to get lung cancer, being able to have it surgically removed is not bad. It is also good that it sounds like it hasn't spread outside the right lung. Don't sell yourself short on the emotional impact though. The word can be scary, surgery can be scary, recovery can be scary. It's good to have a positive attitude but we do understand here that any LC dx is something to deal with. Good luck with your surgery and report back when you are able. Judy in KW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
