It is difficult to be too precise about timings as I am not involved in your care.
It will vary from hospital to hospital based on capacity and and also how well a patient is, having had chemotherapy. Each case will be treated very individually.
We have some information about treatment decisions for non small lung cancer. I am not sure whether this is what you have been diagnosed with.
If you have concerns about delays then do talk this through with your lung cancer nurse or your specialist at the hospital. You can always try and speak to the specialist's secretary to see if you can find out more information about how long you are likely to wait.
If you would like to ring and chat this through with one of the helpline nurses then you are welcome to give us a ring. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
