Chest/back pain got worse
My GP told me to check if my
lung
is
collapsed
or not, I have to have a X-ray when I have chest symptom during my period. By the time I get an appointment on Monday, my bad days are probably over and if they managed to give me X-ray it may be too late this time.

Who Remembers?

I was diagnose with stage 4 inoperable Lung Cancer four and a half years ago and sadly it has returned. I have been prescribed Tarceva.
I would like to know what Tarceva achieves to stop my Lung Cancer getting worse. I do find Tarceva quite aggressive with all the side effects and I have had quite a few but I will carry on hoping that they get easier and the result will be favourable as my Oncologist tells me I will be on it for life

Breathing problems after radiotherapy
My father was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer six weeks ago. Between CT scans the cancer has spread quickly and the tumours in his chest and buttocks have doubled in size. He has had three lots of radiotherapy and two more to go (5 days total). He is having difficulty breathing now and appears
