It happened to me too
I have had 3 of them in the past 1.2 years. They seem to be chronic for me. First dx in 2005 with recurrence in 2007 including pleural effusion to the right lung. I had it drained and added some chemo and was fine for about 8 months. Then another effusion, this time i had to be hospitalized and have a thorodenses (sp??). Where they seal the pleural so it can't refill again. This was in August, since then I'm dealing with some chronic pain around the lung. Dr says pain with go away after healing, we'll see. Started chemo again (3rd time). but I'm still alive and feeling pretty good most of the time. I thank God for my 3.5 year survivorship. Its been a very tough road for me. I'm 44 married to a wonderful guy and 3 children. They keep me going. I laugh alot and make fun of myself until chemo day arrives, then its tears tears and more tears. I'm hoping once I'm in remission again, I can have a nice long break this time.
