Sorting Out the Stuff After a Lung Cancer Diagnosis
In a previous post, I discussed some of the ways I reached out to sort out my feelings after my diagnosis with stage 4 lung cancer. That hasn’t been the only thing I’ve needed to deal with - there has also been all the stuff from a lifetime, especially since I’ve lived in the same home for 36 years.

Hospital Review
The QVAR is helping with the inflammation, most of the lung nodules are lymph nodes, just one slightly concerning one so I will have another scan in October, the
collapsed
part of my right
lung
has reinflated but I am to be assessed for ambulatory oxygen.

My 2WW Hell....
Results where positive that blood clot was clear but I do have a partially
collapsed
lung
and water on both. Been asked to go back on Monday to have an ultrasound as they want to check my ovaries for OHSS, incase that is the reason for the water on my lungs.

Blood test during lung cancer diagnosis
Hi My mum is undergoing tests at the moment and has been told she probably has a tumour in her right lung... she has a needle biopsy booked for next Tuesday and is having blood tests later this week for clotting? Has anyone else had this type of blood test prior to LC diagnosis? And why are they doing

Lung Cancer Hell
I have a squamous, non small cell that my oncology team made a point of telling me (or my siblings really) that this is terminal, no chance of remission. Then I was prescribed what was described as the last ditch chemotherapy, just trying to control the spread of the tumors in my primary lung. The

I'M NEW AND DESPERATELY NEED FEEDBACK. My mom, I believed was killed in the REHAB but now they saying she had lung cancer
I know you may not have symptoms of lung cancer. But is it possible to have stage 4 lung cancer and not need any oxygen and have all normal blood work. They did a chest scan on mom and saw a mass in lung, but the hospital oncologist didn't feel with certainty that is was cancer. They also diagnosed

Lung Transplant Assessment
Can anyone let me know what to expect when I have my one day assessment at Harefied in February. I am due to have blood tests, X-rays and other tests. I had been told that you normally have three days of tests. Does this mean if I get the ok from these tests I will then have to go back for three days

Lung Cancer Warrioress
I'm new here. Was diagnosed with stage 3b NSCLC in January 2011 and it returned in my other lung December 2013. Currently, I'm stage 4 but not on any meds and see my oncologist on a 6 month basis. Like some, I become anxious about cancers return as I never really had any symptoms either time. Any suggestions

Wife of a lung cancer patient
My husband was diagnosed in February of 2012. He is doing well under the treatments given by his doctors and has learned some things that I think may be helpful to others if I share them here. I am also interested in learning from others who are dealing with this disease.

Mutation testing for small cell lung cancer Stage 4
Hello all I meet with my Doctors on the 17 Jan 17. I want to push the testing of mutations with them. When at Dana-Farber I agreed to all testing including genetic. However I am now getting my Chemo closer to home with a medical group affilated with Dana-Farber and Tufts. What kind of mutation testing
