Hello all,

I was diagnosed with stage II lung cancer almost 3 years ago. I however, still deal with a great deal of fatigue and pain. I had surgery (partial lobectomy) almost 2 .5 years ago.

I am wondering if anyone has any recommendations for pain and fatigue or if anyone has any experiences they wish to share.

@cancerdepulmon How is your diet? I have come to find that diet, rest, and activity (like walking) plays a great role in energy.

I completely understand as I don’t have anyone to talk to also. I’m a widow & I live alone. My oldest son died in 2021 & my youngest son & his family live 3 hours. My father is dead & my mother has chronic back pain & is immobile. My younger sister lives with our mother & she is going through a divorce from her husband who abandoned her. My sister doesn’t visit me, help me, call me & rarely texts me. I have various cousins, a niece & nephew that are spread out in nearby states but are hours away from me. After I told my friends I had cancer, they quit contacting me. I have learned how to be my own care giver. It has been very difficult. I’ll admit I’ve been depressed, cried a lot, felt sorry for myself but I never gave up. I prayed & read my Bible everyday. Then I found cancer groups online like this one where I could share what I was going through & got empathetic responses. That really kept me going. I hope you find someone to talk to but I highly recommend the online cancer chat groups.
