So sorry you are going through this. I refused to take chemo. I have seen too many family members and friends go through chemo being sick. I elected to do radiation for stage 1 lung cancer along with surgery.

It sounds like you're going through an incredibly tough time right now. Having a lobe removed and then facing chemotherapy side effects on top of that is a lot for anyone to handle — and you're not alone in feeling this way.
It's really important to let your oncologist know exactly what you're experiencing. They have options to help, including:
- Adjusting your chemo dosage
- Modifying your treatment plan
- Providing medications to manage side effects like nausea, fatigue, or pain
- Referring you to a palliative care team to help keep you as comfortable as possible Fatigue is one of the most common struggles during chemo. Keeping a simple daily journal can actually help — note when fatigue hits, how long it lasts, and what you were doing beforehand. Sharing this with your doctor helps them pinpoint the cause and find the right solution.
On days when you feel up to it, even gentle movement like a short walk can help break the cycle of fatigue leading to more fatigue. But always check with your doctor before starting any activity.
You're advocating for yourself by speaking up — that matters enormously in shaping a treatment plan that works for you.
