  • Hi Sonofjoe

    I hope that you're feeling positive ahead of your surgery next week. 

    I noticed that you'd not had a reply to this post and wanted to let you nkow that we have some information about surgery for lung canc eron our website here. There's information about before, during and after your surgery and some video information including the breathing exercises you may be taught etc. 

    If there's anything you'd like to talk through before your surgery you're welcome to call one of our nurses. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    I hope that all goes smoothly next week. Do let us know how you are when you feel up to it. 

    Best wishes,
