20 Months NED
My latest CT scan showed NED. I am so lucky. In four months I will be at the two year mark since my lobectomy. Nothing to brag about but just something to be thankful for. I sincerely wish all of you could report the same. Rick

C T Scan
Well following a diagnosis of NSC lung cancer in April, a left lung pneumonectomy in July and course of chemotherapy I am going to hospital today for my first post treatment CT scan. Having over the last few weeks had a cough develop. I am feeling a tad apprehensive. I suspect I’m being a bit of a hypochondriac

Consultation at Stanford
So today has been somewhat emotional. Met with Doctor Mooney and went over my health history. He suggests I advance forward with testing and qualifications for double lung transplant as per my portfolio of lung information suggests. He wants me back within a week or so, as soon as insurance gives authorization

Some progress but a question about home testing
So I saw my consultant yesterday. Having had a total thyroid lobectomy 8 weeks ago. Had bloods done about 4 weeks ago with a raised tsh 5.46 (range 0.27 to 4.2) - no action taken to see if right half of thyroid would recover. Had bloods done again and I am now closer to range at TSH 4.4. (t4 16.9

No side effects?
My Dad had his first chemo session 12/4. He got carboplatin, alimta, and keytruda. The thing is that I don't know what amounts of these drugs were given. He's not having any side effects so far and that got me to thinking that perhaps they gave him a small amount. If I get the amounts of the drugs

Completed lung transplant assessment ...
Hello All, My mother and I have just completed a lung transplant assessment with Papworth. It was definitely jam packed with tests and they wanted to paint a realistic sobering picture of life post transplant and possible complications... The end result is that my mother needs to have an angiogram before

Flu jab for over 65's - Lobectomy
Awaiting date for surgery any time now. I am booked in to have a flu jab tomorrow (13th Nov). Now not sure whether I should still have it. The lobectomy is via a thoracotomy.

Hi I am just wondering if there is any support groups around Wrightington, Wigan, Chorley Lancashire or Greater Manchester? My Dad was told his lung cancer had returned in October he still hasn’t started treatment, he is due to start chemo on 10th Dec by that point it will be just over 8 weeks since

feeling anxious
Long story short I had lobectomy in Feb 9cm tumour was taken with it. Never saw an oncologist until 3 months later who says that I should have been given chemo, I already have heart failure so now we are on a watch and wait but im told the cancer will almost certainly re-appear within 2 years post

When to stop the chemo?
Hi everyone. I have good news on my Dad. He just did a PET/CT and the doctor told that the tumor has diminished and two cycles of chemo reacted very well. She decided to add immunotherapy Keytruda now and continue with the same chemo for additional 4 cycles. I wanted to find out is there an end for
