Lung cancer

Hi all my name is Sheena and end of October 2023 I was diagnosed with cancer in both my lungs and lymph nodes. I had chemo immunotherapy. Made me really poorly and put on weight. I then had surgery to remove half my left lung and lymph nodes. All went well then I had sabr radiotherapy to my right lung treatment finished end may 2024 . Again all went well . All the treatments have taken there toll on me but I kept getting no sign of re-occurring. Until now unfortunately June 2025 I’ve received the devastating news that it’s back . What I want to do is try and set up a group of people that are going through cancer of any kind who feel like they need someone to talk to that is going through the same or similar. Don’t know if this is the right site to talk to people who need a chat ideally looking in the Calderdale Queensbury area ok thank you all 

  • Hello Sheena,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat.

    We hope this forum will be helpful in connecting you to people affected by cancer across the UK. There is support out there and hopefully you might be able to find a group in your area or they might have some guidance around setting up a group of your own. On our website we have advice on our living with lung cancer pages, they include practical ways of coping as well as resources and support organisations, which you can refer to at any time. If you ever wish to speak to our cancer nurses about anything, you can call one of the team for free on 0808 800 4040. Lines are open 9 to 5 Monday to Friday.

    All the best to you,

    Moderator Anastasia
