4 cycles of chemotherapy and immunology for Stage 3 non small cell lung cancer
After having one cycle of
chemotherapy
and immunology I am enquiring whether after I complete the 4 cycles how long this treatment alone would prolong life? Upon research I'm getting 6-12 months only.

Chemo and diabetes
Does anyone have raised blood sugar levels as a result of taking steroids for
chemotherapy
? My doctor has increased my medication but my levels are still high. I wondered whether there's anything else that might help eg a particular diet. Thanks.

Stage 4 lung cancer - treatment
Upon discharge from hospital he was told they would reduce the strength of the
chemotherapy
to see if he could tolerate this better. However, at his appointment they said they had stopped the
chemotherapy
and said he could only have immunology.
