Hi I had the op six weeks ago , for the first four weeks I was really tired and suddenly felt better . Now on week six and feel just about normal. Had my op in Edinburgh and first-class treatment hope your experience is similar 

Hi my name is Monique and I have had a lunglobectomy in 2015 for melanoma cancer of which the cancer grew so far on my left lung that they had to cut more than half of my lung off. I was in ICU for 3 days to monitor and exercise the lung and then in High Care for another 2 days. I had 2 drain pipes right under my left breast and had to take deep breath in and out to drain access fluids. Now I didn't have major pain but felt uncomfortable with the cut on my shoulder blade. I fully recovered but can definitely feel a difference when I exercise. Don't be nervous the technology of today is very good and so are the  Dr's. Good luck I pray everything goes well and may you have a speedy recovery.
