Squamous Cell Stage II B Lung Cancer- Be Your Own Advocate
Hi All My name is Kathy - I believe my age is irrelevant at this time . I was diagnosed just about a month ago, after what seemed an eternity but in fact it's actually been a bit of a whirlwind. In early April I had an excruciating pain on my right hand side extending from the shoulder to just below

Devastated! my Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Transformed into Small Cell Lung Cancer
Hello Friends, It has been a while since I posted. I was originally diagnosed 7 1/2 months ago with stage 4 Non-Small Cell EGFR + Lung Cancer. Had a great response to Tagrisso 80mg as my first line but progressed only after 6 months. My biopsy in July confirmed that my Non-Small Cell has transformed

I have two weeks before my lobectomy, so needless to say I'm on pins and needles and trying to get ready for what's coming is all I can think of! As I talk to some who have had the same surgery or read here and in other forums, I am getting very different opinions on this. So my question is: which do

Surgery scheduled
We have a date: July 10. A part of me wishes it would happen sooner so we can get this over and done with, but I am grateful for the time to prepare and get things set up at work and at home. The plan is for VAT surgery, right upper lobectomy to remove the nodule with adenocarcinoma and mediastinal lymph

Alpha 1 antitrypsin question please
Hi- can anyone help? My GP recently requested a blood test for alpha-1 antitrypsin due to some wheezing I have, and a strong family history of COPD. The blood test that was carried out was Serum protein electrophoresis, which came back normal. I asked the GP if A1AT is included in that and she said yes

TOE echocardiogram
After two major operations in less then 18 months, kidney blockage and lung cancer lobe removal, I said never again. I’m done. Had my quota. Remind me never to say never again. Saw a cardiologist at Papworth Hospital yesterday about the mitral valve regurgitation problem they discovered during tests
