We have had dad’s results he has (T4 N3 M1B) they said it has metastasised to the lymph nodes. The Biopsy results were negative so he has to have a needle guided CT to try again,I’m a bit speechless with it all to be honest it’s a lot to take in when your sitting in that room, dad also has emphysema and Interstitial Lung Disease the consultant said it would be difficult for the guided needle biopsy as the interstitial lung disease is scaring? So this carries risks, dad is still deciding if he wants it done but without it he won’t know what type of cancer it is and what treatment is available. With the interstitial disease the consultant also said that chemo and radiotherapy could affect it and make it worse, My dad and I are so very confused with it all, any guidance or and vice would be appreciated xx
