Would this be considered Lung Cancer. I have endometrial cancer that spread in my lungs. I had a radical hysterectomy and now the CT Scans are showing spread in my lungs. Treated first by Chemo and now Avastin.

Lynnsie44,
Welcome! You will find hope and kindness here, along with the wisdom and humor that seems second nature to this group.
I am so very sorry to hear what a road you have been traveling, and that now you are facing more challenges. I sincerely hope you find comfort and strength here.
Technically, the cancer in your lungs is endometrial cancer that spread (as you shared), but your symptoms and your road will be understood by those in this community. Please feel free to share your thoughts, questions and feelings here - you are most welcome.
We look forward to getting to know you better.
Welcome to the group. No matter what the cause, your cancer in your lungs makes you one of us. Your treatment will likely be different, but there will be many similarities. Please keep us apprised of how you are doing and know we are all behind you.
Jean
lynsie44 You are most welcome this is a family and you will be part of this family. Like jean said no matter the reason its in your lungs your still part of us.lif you need to talk i'm here.
As Peggy indicated, the language of what "kind" of cancer you have is dependent on what your primary cancer is. That is, where did the cancer originate before it metastisized/spread to another location. Your treatment plan will be based on the primary cancer and what works best for that. But you will likely have symptoms, medications to help with those symptoms, etc. that we patients with lung cancer (as primary cancer) will understand and have experience to share. I do hope you stick around and can find some benefit here, if only to know you are not the only one dealing with some of this.
