Is the Subtype of Lung Cancer NSCLC important in establishing treatment options?
Mum has recently been diagnosed with lung cancer (NSCLC carcinoma). They have started her on chemo (Vinorelbine + Cisplatin). Handling it amazingly and will start her second cycle soon. Radiotherapy may also be added depending on PET scan results (should know this week). We are concerned about whether

I started with radiation to my largest lung tumor and Tarceva in September 2015. I later had a one time high dose radiation treatment to my spine. My April 2016 scan showed No Evidence

Thank you Nhs
For some months we have been taking a close relative of my husband to the Christie hospital for treatment of a tumour that was blocking her windpipe. She only weighed 6 stone was only able to drink sips of water and was convinced she couldn't be helped and about to die. She has slowly increased her strength

September Survivor Spotlight - Betty Duel
The September Survivor Spotlight shines on Betty Duel. Betty worked out all the time and was very focused on her health, so she was determined to find the source of a persistent cough and shortness of breath. She was eventually diagnosed with lung cancer and had 2/3 of her right lung removed. Read about

Uplifting stories on single lung transplants needed please!
Since the beginning of July 2016, I've been on 'The Active Transplant List for a single lung transplant' at Harefield Hospital I've been told, by one of my Transplant Co-ordinator Nurses that it's more difficult to get a single lung donor. I so wish I'd never learnt this! However, my surgeon

New to this... Tried everything for post surgical pain.
Hey. I've never really used a forum like this before although I have read them. I'm 22 years old and had lung surgery 3 years ago following a pneumothorax which couldn't be resolved. My lung is generally okay now but I've been left with chronic pain around my ribs on the side and at the top of my chest

Test result interpretation please
Hi, I had my right lobe and isthmus removed in March due to an inconclusive FNA on a 4cm nodule . It was decided that the nodule was caused by Hashimotos, altho I wasn't particularly aware of any symptoms ( I thought they were menopausal). My post lobectomy TSH level was within range but my blood test
