Exercise

Is it O.K to continue with pulmonary rehab exercise programme when diagnosed stage3 lung cancer

  • Hi Oopsydaisy and thank you for your chat.

    I'm sorry to hear about your situation, and I understand that this is a concerning time for you.

    Since I'm not directly involved in your care, I cannot determine whether you can continue with your pulmonary rehab exercise programme.

    The best person to consult is your hospital specialist, who has all your medical information.

    It could be that your pulmonary rehab programme may need adjustments for your lung cancer treatment. You might also be offered a similar rehab programme after completing your lung cancer treatment.

    I can appreciate there is a lot of uncertainty for you. I hope you know more about your situation soon.

    Please get back to us if you need any more information or support. You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Kind regards

    Tina
