lung cancer
hi, just joined this site, i have been seen by the oncologist, due to severe copd im not a candidate for lung surgery, radiotherapy for 4 weeks has been agreed, there is also a lump in my breast so another ct scan is needed along with biopsies so radiotherapy will be delayed until the results come back

INHALERS
At the present time I take a Seebri in the morning & use Bricanyl as a reliever - it has been suggested by my consultant to use Altibro breezhaler - does anyone have experience of switching to this ie is it better than Seebri? I had an op for lung cancer in 2017 & was diagnosed with COPD in 2016.

Hi All I am new to this site and thought I should make a post. 2 years ago I was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, have just completed 2 years of immunotherapy, one treatment every 3 weeks. The consultant says I have responded really well for someone aged 78 but unfortunately during the last few years

Lung surgery
Hi, I am just joining the group today, I was diagnosed with lung cancer in February and it is T200 adenocarcinoma, I had 60% of my right lung removed on March 19th and have been told now that the lung left behind may still have tuma cells. I have opted to go back into surgery next week for the rest

Social distancing whilst having treatment
Stage 4 lung cancer. Hello I am having chemotherapy and immunatherapy for my cancer, cycle 1 was given at the chemo unit in the main hospital, however cycle 2 was moved to the Helena Rollason centre which is in a separate building, this made sense to keep all cancer patients away from the main hospital

Steps to become a carer for my sister
My sister is having chemotherapy for lung cancer and is self-isolated in her flat in London. I want to be able to go there to be her carer.

My Mum Part 2
Hello I recently posted after my mum was diagnosed with Stage 3b lung cancer. She saw the oncologist for her first appointment today who explained that her biopsy results show that she has NSCLC Adenocarcinoma (sp?). They have told her that it is T4, N3, M0. Whilst I know it is good that she hasn't any

They also said people dont do well after 12 months.i dont really know what to expect. My dad had lung cancer too but it was a pancoast tumour and

Visit to see granddaughter.
She had a hospital visit as she has had a
collapsed
lung
. As I was leaving she gave me a hug and a kiss and said to me, "call again". I was over the moon to see her. I have been looking at my baby photo's again today, and getting a lot of comfort from them.

A wild ride
Then a bronchoscopy which revealed that I had blastomycosis and a

lung
. Blastomycosis is a rare fungal disease brought on thru exposure to fungus that lives in damp soil and rotting wood. I live by a river and had spent August clearing brush by the river.
