Side affects
1 yr survivor of lung & uterean cancer.had surgery for one cancer biopsy on lung. Chemo treatment for both cancers then radiation for for the first cancer then surgery on the lung had a lportion of lung removed on right lung. Only thing I deal with is some unusual side affects after the lung surgery.

Tagrisso/Osimertinib side-effects?? Nails lifting???
Hi all - I have been fortunate to have been given Iressa/Gefitinib as first line treatment for stage 4 lung cancer. I had been on that almost 3 years when the cancer started to grow again. Found to have T790M mutation and put on Tagrisso three months ago - good shrinkage of all tumours from latest scan

CBD oil and lung cancer
Hello, Considering using a high dose of pure CBD oil concentrate ( no THC as I cant do the high) to see if that will help me with getting my cancer into remission. I have heard great things about it, but it is expensive especially if you do the recommended 400 to 600 MG day they say is needed for stage

Blood biopsy
My doctor ordered a blood biopsy and PET scan as last CT scan showed a slight change. The blood biopsy came back with the Exon 19 deletion mutation. Has anyone else had experience with this?

The drugs
For some time my COPD had been getting much worse. I had sudden episodes where I was totally helpless and was gasping desperately for a breath of air. This could happen up to 5 or 6 times a day. Eventually, after an emergency call for an ambulance, I was admitted to hospital and spent a week there during

Follow-on post, lung cancer
Further to my first post (4 minutes ago!) I just realized a couple of things I meant to ask - but i can't figure out if I can edit the previous post. The CT scan indicates it is confined to the right lung, but how accurate are they? I'm scared it might actually have spread, though the report said the
