Welcome to the forum Tisme although I'm really sorry to hear you may have lung cancer.

I know this must be very scary, and stressful, but I'm glad you've reached out to us as so many of our members will understand the thoughts and feelings you are contending with so you are not alone, and I'm sure some of them will stop by soon to offer their support and advice.

I hope writing things down has helped but if you'd like to talk any of this through with one of our cancer nurses, you can contact them on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very insightful and will do all they can to support you and answer any questions you may have at this time.

We're here for you Tisme and wishing you all the best for next week.

Kind regards,

Hey Tisme, I’m a relative of a parent that is going through this too. We’ve had the diagnosis but we’re waiting potential treatment plan following scans so a little further on. I hope your scans went well and here if you need to chat 

Thanks for the support. I've had tge confirmation that it is lung cancer, but tge PET also noted some spots on my liver and esophagus. The consultant doesn't think that these are cancer, but I can't have tge surgery for the lung until these are confirmed as non cancer. Hopefully I'll have my MRI on the liver and endoscopy done next week. I'm still in a bit of a whirl and still fliiting between denial and abject terror ...
