I had right lung upper lobe wedge resection done on 4/01/24. Doing well no other cancer found in pathology report .as it turns out I only had squamous cells o.4cm in 1 nodule. Still have some minor nerve discomfort at times but it is getting better. Only further treatment at this time is to have periodic CT scans every 6 months for 2 years. Good luck to all who are going through this. Very informative interview ❤
I had right upper VATS lobectomy in August 23. My nodule was 8mm and turned out to be a squamous cell carcinoma. I also had three lymph glands removed and thankfully the cancer was completely excised.
My recovery was uneventful, with only mild discomfort from the intercostal nerves. I only had sporadic periods of breathlessness which faded within weeks of my surgery.
I have had a further CT scan and have an appointment on May 13th with the thoracic team for a check up. I’m feeling very positive about things and can’t thank then enough.
Excellent resource for my upcoming robotic surgery, have a few more questions for my surgeon and I thank you for your information.
Very informative, can’t believe there’s not more views and likes! 🤷🏻♂️
Thank you for your detailed presentation. I’ll be undergoing a VATS procedure later this year and I’m seeking out all of the information I can on prep/recovery.
This information was such a blessing to me! Thank you I am having VATS in 2 weeks and I just wanted to know more about what will be happening.
Thanku Dr Andrew Arndt. Beautifully explained.
Excellent presentation.
This was so great! Thank you!

I just got an appointment with a pulmanoligist. They were gonna get me scheduled for a breathing test. I thought they were joking and told them to f-off. I just want to get a biopsy and see if thease nodules are cancer or what?
I would suggest doing a PET scan first, then lung biopsy. That's what they found out my husband's lung cancer is Adenocarcinoma.. 😥 stay strong 💪
@@hih-meh1344 got it done this morning and waiting to talk to the thoracic. Surgon
I saw 2 pulmonologists before I found one that wanted to talk biopsy instead of breathing tests. Of course the first 2 prescribed the most expensive COPD medications.
I'm gonna lose my right lung was wondering how hard is it gonna be on my body and how hard will it be to breath on one lung
How have you been getting on? Would like to know very much, thank you
