Advanced lung cancer

I feel numb .. almost don't believe it..they said advanced lung cancer but I haven't had any tests other than a CT scan..been coughing since Xmas and pain in right rib ..they also said I had lung infection so am on antibiotics.. doesn't seem to be doing much. Confused 

  • I'm sorry to hear you've been told you have advanced lung cancer Shells but haven't had any tests except for the CT scan.

    I can understand why this would be confusing but I hope the reply you received from Nurse Jemma on your other thread helped clear things up. If you have any further questions about this though, or just want to talk things through with someone, you can give our nurses a call on 0808 800 4040. Their phone lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and they will do all they can to help.

    Coping with a cancer diagnosis can be very tough, but our members are here for you Shells and I'm sure it won't be long until some of them stop by to offer their support and advice.

    Kind regards,
