Wound up in the hospital having major surgery to remove my right middle lobe of my lung along with several lymph nodes. I was also on medication for almost a year afterwards with monthly visits to an infectious disease specialist.

Unfortunately I have also heard from people who have problems with their sight or lungs years later. It's really a sneaky disease and often not diagnosed right away since exposure was often years before serious symptoms show up. Thank you so much for sharing his story with me!<br /><br />LisaLA Muranohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00827994015402999638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8613339135823962078.post-777630331771110642019-09-03T20:18:33.321-04:002019-09-03T20:18:33.321-04:00My dad had a severe form of this.

Was in the hospital for about two weeks before they diagnosed him. He had to have one lobe of his lung removed. The disease was spilled and his other lobe where it continued to cause problems for the rest of his life .Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13000325021820749832noreply@blogger.com
