I was diagnosed with lung cancer in November 2023. I had no symptoms so the diagnosis was a total shock, and especially to be told it had already spread to my brain. Had surgery, radiotherapy and chemo in 2024, then 3 monthly monitoring. All OK and I stupidly thought I was cured until April this year when spread to my pancreas was found. Have had 2 rounds of chemo and one combined chemo/immunotherapy. Unfortunately reacted badly to the immunotherapy with liver inflammation so treatment stopped and been in hospital for 2 weeks on IV steroids. Now home on a tapering dose of oral steroids. I feel traumatised by the hospital admission, 26 hours in A&E waiting for a bed. Feel that I am back to square one but worse as no surgical options are available this time. 

Sorry for the long post but I would be grateful to speak to anyone who may have unfortunately experienced similar as I am struggling to cope at the moment.

Many thanks.
