So sorry to hear that. Get well!
I am so sorry to hear that. I actually did have thoughts of trying to couple a reunion and some diving with you at some date in the future. You get well!
The pneumothorax from a biopsy should resolve fairly quickly.
Once you know what the cell type is, and you are staged, you will know how to assess your risks. If you have small cell, for example, you have something fairly curable, and taking any undue risks diving would not make much sense.
Other cell types, other staging, would change the prognosis, and change the risk assessment.
Taking a little time to gather all the information you can is well worth it.
