Update Cough
Like mentioned previously my mom has had cough attacks since her lobectomy 3 months ago. They started 2 weeks ago. She says her throat gets scratchy and she panics when she coughs and her eyes get teary. She fears this so much, it mostly happens when she is in cold places like stores. She hates going

mesothelioma - anyone tried Opdivo or Yervoy?
Hello I am looking for some advice on mesothelioma, I know there is no hope, but maybe I can at least alleviate my dad's condition - he is short of breath, extremely weak and has chest and arm pain. I read about Opdivo/ Yervoy immune therapy (I believe nivolumab and ipilimumab are the exact drug names

Dry Cough attacks
Hello all, so ever since her lobectomy my mom has been dealing with runny nose and cough sometimes which i assume is normal. It is just dry cough.

Bones
Happy Saturday everyone. So once again I am here with my fear. Mom had her lobectomy 3 months ago doing amazing. Her ankles have hurt but it has been there even before she had surgery. Now her knee has been hurting for two days. I am so afraid of bone mets. Can it spread that quick if it was? Our appointment

Secrets of lung cancer spread found in patients' blood and biopsies.
Early signs that a patient’s lung cancer may spread and become untreatable can be picked up in samples of their blood and tumour, according to a trio of papers published in Nature Medicine today (Monday). “Thanks to these findings we know much more about how lung cancer changes, spreads and evades treatment

Missed diagnosis for lung cancer.
I have been looking through previous posts for lung cancer and the treatment and diagnosis for lung cancer and a couple of people wrote about the appalling treatment their family member's had from their hospital. My hospital had my tumour on an Xray for over 2 year's but omitted to tell anybody despite

Silent Reflux after Lung Surgery for Early Cancer
I had a right lower lobectomy in February. My consultant is pleased with my recovery and I am now just being monitored. However after this surgery I had symptoms develop that lead me to now believe I have silent reflux or LPR. I've had an endoscopy that found only mild gastritis. I take Esomeprazole

My dad has recently been diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic lung cancer. He has bee started on Pembro and really struggling physically and emotionally.

Adenocarcinoma Recurrence
I have just learned that I definitely have a recurrence of my adenocarcinoma from my LLL lobectomy 2.5 years ago. PET scan and brain MRI next week. Then we will know whether it is stage 3 or 4. We will plot our course of action at that point. New territory for me. Best to you all, Rick

Adding radiation after immunotherapy improves progression-free survival for some patients with metastatic lung cancer.
Adding precisely aimed, escalated doses of radiation after patients no longer respond to immunotherapy reinvigorates the immune system in some patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), increasing progression-free survival (PFS). Findings of the phase II randomized trial will be presented
