Sharing a recording of a Lung Cancer conference for patients
Hi everyone At the end of October, one of the leading cancer centres in the US held an online conference for cancer patients and carers. It was recorded and you can watch the sessions now. Its a brilliant opportunity to hear lots of specialist doctors talking about treatment options and new research

Alimta and Keytruda causing major fatigue
Hi all. I am so happy to report that after only four treatments of Carboplatin, Alimta, and Keytruda, my scans and blood work up showed tremendous improvement of NSCLC Stage IV — almost NED but I still have a long while to go. My brilliant oncologist is putting me on maintenance of Keytruda and Alimta

Recurrence of lung cancer?
Hi all. I haven't been here for a while though I have been on other forum's because of the health problems I have been left with after the lung cancer misdiagnosis and subsequent ( but late ) Lobectomy! I had to go to the Dr. today for a few reasons but I have been having similar symptoms to the one's

Biopsy Results
Even though I've commented on other posts, this is my first. In July I coughed up blood, saw the GP who organised a chest x-ray. The GP called me an hour after the x-ray to tell me I had a 6cm shadow on my right lung and it could be cancer. After meeting a respiratory consultant, I had CT scan, PET scan

Husband in hospital with collapsed lung problems. Lost 20 kg since Feb Should his Levothyroxine have been adjusted to a lower dose?
Just a couple quick questions re the above. I don't even know if they have been testing his levels but will question this today. I am presuming they are but who knows. He is quite ill and his lung is not healing well. Has had lung drain in for 2 months now. He is constantly losing weight and they are

One thing after another, need some words of comfort please🥺
They thought it was because i had a partial
collapsed
lung
with fluid around the base lining. I
collapsed
twice whilst walking with the physios. They said the more i moved the quicker it would clear. It wasnt bad enough to drain. Day 12 really struggled to get upstairs.

Back on the transplant list
Yesterday I returned to the lung transplant waiting list after an enforced break due to my Dad picking up his second bout of Covid. Fortunately, Lauren and I didn't get it, too. We've all been doing regular testing and we must have caught Dad's covid very early before he could unwittingly pass it on.

NED means I should feel happy, right?
I'm new to this site, was diagnosed with Stage IV NSCLC adenocarcinoma (EGFR mutation) in June 2021. I had SBRT for 3 brain mets, which seems to have taken care of those bastards. I started on Tagrisso pretty soon afterward and am still on it. I had an upper left lung lobectomy and a wedge resection
