I came down with lung cancer 3 months after retiring in November 2021. Feb 2022, I went into Kaiser's new Medical Center in Kearney Mesa on Feb.6th, 5 am and underwent a upper right CT Guided Robotic Lobectomy of my right lung. In on a Monday and home on Wednesday. My Cancer was called Adenocarcinoma. It also took my Mother and most recently my younger Sister. I am the oldest of 4 , 69y/o and consider myself to be lucky, at least for the time being.

How long does the shortness of breath and fatigue last after surgery?

[@judithbforth1354]

I am five months out. I still get shortness of breath. I will have a good day. Then a week with SOB and heavy chest. Feels like asthma, but I never had asthma symptoms before the surgery. Also still get fatigued.

Yes he does. Verbal plus visual equal faster acquisition of knowledge and greater retention.
He just needs a new marker.
