I had right lung lower lobe lobectomy January of 2007. I still experience shortness of breath and use oxygen during extended activity. The pain of the staples is daily. I still feel it with every breath. I miss my old life, cannot hike mountains anymore. I still have numbness in side and chest. like a pins & needles feeling. 6/12/09. 2 1/2 years later. now they may have to remove the lobe above it.
