Hello Pumpkin-, 

I can understand why you are feeling confused and feel like screaming inside after being told that your bone marrow is affected and there are more growths around the lung. I hope that you will find out more soon and that you can speak to your specialist and get all the facts you need and that they tell you whether there will be a treatment plan in place before your next pet scan in January. It's lovely that your lung cancer nurse rang you to give you this information but if you feel that something wasn't clear or that you don't know really what to expect, it might be worth ringing her back and telling her that you would like to talk to someone about your treatment options for example. 

Our nurses are also available on this free number 0808 800 4040 - their helpline is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm and they will be happy to talk things through with you and point you in the right direction so don't hesitate to give them a call. 

Best wishes,

Ive got you i know i want to scream everyday its not fair you think no one gets it you have no idea what the hell to think and most of all you hate every one you see because their ok.Its not fair im in the same frame of mind so everything you say hits home and one more person says "You have got this"Im gonna slap them WTF do they know sound about right?

Thank you Lucie, I have an appointment coming up some time in November when my Oncologist is back from annual leave yesterday I got a call from the Respiratory department apparently they want to see me said that I should have been informed last week by my lung cancer nurse but she hadn’t mentioned that. So will see if they can help with my breathing issues. The top part of my left lung has collapsed as well and they say d that won’t improve. My head is just all over the place at the moment.
