Metastatic Lung Cancer.
Two years ago I was diagnosed with Metastatic Lung Cancer (original site: oral) but, to date, I have shown no physical deterioration. Anyone else in a similar position ? The uncertainty is driving me crazy. The Consultants have advised me that it will "attack" eventually. It's the waiting and not knowing

Are you willing to talk to the press about treatment options?
hello all We have had a request from a pharmaceutical company regarding a possible press interview next week. They are looking for someone who has had lung cancer and perhaps has had surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy. You would be interviewed by the press (most likely newspaper journalist) regarding

Radiation dilemma! IMRT vs Proton
Hi, I have another radiation question if anyone has any opinions or help that would be greatly appreciated! The mapping is complete now for my dad and the tumor next to his heart causing the SVC syndrome. The verdict came back that on paper it shows IMRT would be slightly less radiation to the heart

National organ donation week
Well it's national organ donation week and I have had the opportunity to be a recipient of a single lung transplant in November 2016. I'm doing great!! And all because a very kind family agreed for their loved one to donate their organs. I'm eternally grateful for the second chance at life with my daughter

Module found 90 days after lobectomy
9x11 mm module found after 6 months of chemo and a middle and upper lobe removal in Dec 2017, also 30 shots of radiation. Normal 90 day ct scan and a module shows in the plural effusion! Does this mean cancer returned in the form of a 1 cm node?? Or is it scar tissue from the resection along with

Unexpected diagnosis
We just received my husband's diagnosis after his lobectomy two days ago: stage 4 melanoma. We were expecting a stage 2 lung. Isn't that crazy? Hoping for a different type of cancer? The latter seemed treatable. Melanoma sounds so much worse. This will take awhile to sink in. I need advice on how to

Proton therapy
With the help of several people on here (you all are great!!) I urged my dad to push for proton therapy over the IMRT that was suggested for chest tumor. We did last week and tomorrow he is set to begin mapping for proton therapy to the chest tumor (4.9 cm) by his heart! I anticipated this would move

A Milestone that Shouldn't Be!
Today is my 60th birthday. I have been thinking about all it has taken to get through to this day. In 2002 the prognosis was less than good that I would make it to the 5 year mark. It is 4 cancers later, and I am still kicking up my heels and fighting! While this is a big milestone, I would like to remind
