Mesothelioma
I am 66 and after a number of tests which included a PET scan, I have recently been diagnosed with Mesothelioma. My Consultant believes the best way forward is for me to now undertake a mix of both surgery and chemotherapy. I would be interested to hear from any other members who suffer from this disease

New here with a big hello!
Hey there Health Unlocked. I joined on behalf of my Mom, who was recently diagnosed with lung cancer. My fiance and I researched until we were blue in the face and have decided to move forward with treatment with CBD and THC. I really hope this stuff lives up to the hype. There seems to be so much

How does Doctor determine need for Oxygen?
My COPD after my lobectomy is getting worse especially in hot and humid conditions. How do they determine if you need oxygen. I had a breathing test in a chamber once.

MY DEAR SISTER'S STRUGGLE IS OVER
To all my dear Free to Breathe friends, It is with a heavy heart that I must report that my sister, Marta, has passed away. It was a very hard struggle since the end of this last February and we are deeply saddened by our loss. Her metastasized lung cancer, unfortunately, was discovered way too late

Recent stage 1 diagnosis
