Lung cancer spread to the brain

Hi my mum had a seizure last Friday. Found out after a ct scan mum has secondary brain cancer as well as lung cancer. 

Mum has fifteen to twenty growths and a 4cm tumour at the front.

Mums very aggressive at times and very hurtful. Will this improve with treatment.

  • Hello tracy1977,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. You have come to the right place to talk to others who may be going through similar challenges at the moment, who are looking after a loved one with cancer and are also struggling to know how to deal with hurtful or aggressive comments. 

    Your poor mum - I am sorry she had a seizure last Friday and that she has so many growths as well as a 4cm tumour at the front.

    I hope your mum's treatment goes well and that she feels better as a result. Do keep us updated on her progress if you get a chance. I would also suggest you give our nurses a call on this free number 0808 800 4040. Their line is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm and they may be able to answer some of the questions you may have about your mum's treatment, for example.

    Best wishes,
