Adenosquamous carcinoma

Hi,

My mum was recently diagnosed with Lung Cancer and after the surgery we found the cancer had spread from her upper left lobe to her lower left lobe indicating it has entered her blood stream. We were told that it is adenosquamous carcinoma which is an aggressive cancer. Has anyone else had experience with this type of cancer?

Thank you,

Ellora

  • Good morning Ellora, 

    Welcome to the forum and I'm sorry to read about Mum's diagnosis. I'm sure it's a difficult time for all of you with lots of questions. 

    We do have some information on our website about lung cancer including some more specific support organisations. We also have a lovely team of nurses here at Cancer Research UK who would be happy to talk to you about Mum's diagnosis and help with any questions you may have. You can call them free from a UK landline on 0808 800 4040 (Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm). 

    Do feel free to come and post here any time you want or need to. Whilst we have members with many different diagnoses, I know they all share many common experiences and are happy to support anyone who posts. 

    Sending you our best wishes, 

    Jenn
