It has taken me hours to get on this new site, I nearly gave up.
My results wern't good, I have a tumour in the bottom of my right lung and a big swollen lymph gland in the middle of my chest.To top it off, the registrar did not get a big enough sample out of my lung to identify the type of cancer it is, so I have got to have another bronchoscopy, the consultant said he would do it this time as I had a bad time with the 1st .I have then got to go to Plymouth for a PET scan which apparantly will make all the cancer cells in my body glow.Lol!That puts a new meaning to the words " light up my life".Well, must go now, feel numb, but thank you all for your support.xxxxxGene

So sorry too read this news,No wonder you feel numb,but on the bright side they can deal with it all now,and hopefully get on top of things. my thought and prayers are with you
Oh, ((((((Gene)))))) big hugs! Not exactly what you wanted to hear, but I do agree with Julie, your medical team appear to be on top of this. Positive energy is heading your way! Take care of yourself, and do keep us up to date. I'll be thinking of you
I am sorry you did not get good results and it seems that although you have to have another bronchoscopy, that your consultant is now there to give you the best of care. A friends partner is going through something similar, and has just started treatment by tablet to shrink the tumors he has, and from what I am hearing from him there are a lot of new and promising treatments out there now. Try not to worry too much
Gene, I,m so very sorry to hear your news, but as others have said, you seem to have a good team caring for you & all I can do is add my very best wishes for the road ahead
Oh dear, dear Gene not the most fabulous news but you're still with us, they've found it and now they can sort it. We'll just have to doubly cheer you up now so sending oodles and oodles of smiles, gentle hug and a mwah xx

Hi Gene I have to admire the way you've taken the news I would be climbing the wall !
I reckon that shows a strength of character few posses, if anybody can fight this thing I'd put my money on you. It's a new site as you know so even I it's a bit of a trial keep in touch and let us know how things are for you.
Dear Oakengrange, I'm so sorry to hear this news of yours. Agree with everyone else's thoughts and good wishes. I'm hoping that you have family and friends close by to support and care for you.
Lots of caring and support for you here. I wish the best outcome for you. Penelope x
