  • Hi Matty42 and a warm welcome to our forum, 

    I am so sorry you have been through all this since end of May being diagnosed with a brain tumour and then having to go through brain tumour surgery and finding out that it was a secondary tumour and that you have stage 4 lung and liver metastatic cancer. What a shock it must have been for you and I hope that the Tagrisso tablet will help. 

    You will find out more information on our website on Tagrisso which I hope you will find useful and I would also like to mention another member,  who posted this Tagrisso thread about 8 months ago and was at the time in a similar position to you looking to talk to others who had had the same treatment. Feel free to post a reply on their thread if you wish to do so.

    If it would help to talk through any of your concerns with one of our nurses you can call them on this free number 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    Best wishes,
