Hi Donnahamhat

I have also just been diagnosed with lung cancer (with other areas of concern) on 22/12 after CT scans on my chest pelvis and abdomen. I'm waiting for a PET scan appointment and Bronchoscopy appointment. After the initial shock I'm finding the waiting difficult and totally understand your anxiety. 

Finding myself googling as much information as I can but it's all so confusing when I don't actually know for sure the type etc. They said possibly carcinoid. They did allocate me to a lung nurse who I can call with any questions. Did they do this for you?

Hello stay strong, like you I am struggling with the waiting. I hope to have some answers when I see the specialist tomorrow.

Google is maybe not a good idea. I have tried not to be tempted to Google information. I understand your need to know but all you will do is confuse yourself and cause more stress which you can do without at the moment. 

have a good day and take care

I'll try thank you.  Just got a call with a PET scan appointment. Hope you find out more at your consultant appointment. Take care
