Hi Cancergrace,
I lied - I'm still strategizing, euphemism for worrying. Wednesday, my sweetie will have a shunt revision to treat his normal pressure hydrocephalus. I have a long list of things I make sure the anesthesiologist is told just before going into surgery including past delirium, etc. So now I'm thinking, I will tell the anesthesiologist my sweetie has one lung (hopefully that would have been known) because I have stopped taking chances with assumptions of what people know and don't. Anyway, are there any other issues associated with his cancer journey that I need to mention?
As always, thanks in advance
Best regards,
Lisa

I don't think so. I agree that they should already be aware of his single lung, but it won't hurt to offer a reminder. They have a pretty complete list of things to run through.
Good luck.
