Work consisted of eMails and Phone calls though after the 2 week check from surgen I was told to let the pain be my guide to activities.

I could not be more pleased with the results achieved, the surgen compared it to giving him the clear advantage with the 10x magnafacation and also the tool used called Lightning bug whereas a dye is injected and a certain wavelength of light is used to highlight nerves , very important when working around the phrenic nerve that controls your diaphragm.

The pathology reports were a stage 1 tumor with out any cells past the capsule of the tumor.
