Waiting now for a liver biospy and the results of the Brain MRI.
So I had the PET Scan last Wednesday of course as you know the results were not good. The lung cancer has traveled to the upper left lobe of my liver it is also in my left lung, possible two places in my bones. MY question is I understand that my cancer is not curable at this time, but can be managed

Possible lung cancer diagnosis- looking for advice
Hi. I am looking for advice - my mum had an abnormal chest X-ray around 3 weeks ago which showed a single "mass" in her upper right lung. She had a fast track ct scan with contrast 2 days later and waited 12 days to get the results. We went to the chest clinic on Monday and the consultant said he thinks

After two negative biopsies doctors still believe is lung cancer.
Hello, my name is Marily and my father is 65 years old he's a pretty healthy active guy, but about two weeks ago he started coughing blood.. he hadn't had any pain or anything prior. We took him to the ER and every since we got in they were sure it was lung cancer. They did a X - ray and found a tumor

Trying to remain optimistic for my Dad with Small Cell Lung Cancer.. any advice is welcome.
Hi there, My Dad was diagnosed with Stage 3 small cell lung cancer at the end of May, 2016. It was found in his right lung, and in a lymph node in his neck. He has finished his rounds of chemo. He had a brain MRI done about 2 weeks ago and it thankfully came back that it hasn't spread to his brain.

Anyone on Pembrolizumab (Keytruda) Immunotherapy
Hi, I have NSC Adenocarcinoma lung cancer, stage 4, diagnosed in Jan 2016. My first treatment was Tarceva, a targeted oral chemotherapy. That was working well until recently and now have switched to Pem/Keytruda, a targeted Immunotherapy . Wondering if others out there have experienced Pembrolizumab?
