getting lung removed - please help!
Hi, I'm new to the board and have been searching everywhere to find people who have had their lung removed. My boyfriend has sarcoma and has had over 6 lung surgeries. 5 weeks ago they wedged out pieces of his right lung and next week they are taking out his whole left lung. The doctors have told us that there is only 1/10 chance he will need oxygen when he exerts himself. But we'd like to know from personal stories what people have experienced once they had a lung removed. He's pretty active and we need to know what his 'limits' will be. I'd appreciate any feedback. Thank you!!!
