Has anyone had cancer in the mediastinum? Dad just diagnosed

Hi, I am looking for some advice. My dad has recently been diagnosed with cancer in the Mediastinum (the area  inbetween that separates your lungs) as anyone had a relative or been through lung cancer before? I haven't heard of cancer in the Mediastinum before.

 

  • Welcome to the Cancer Chat community Le239 although I'm sorry to hear of your dad's diagnosis.

    We have some information about this type of cancer on our website but if you have any questions or would prefer to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses, they're just a phone call away on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday (except bank holidays) between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Hopefully some of our members who have contended with this diagnosis will share their experiences and advice with you soon as well.

    Kind regards,
