Husband just diagnosed with lung cancer

Please someone help me feel like ive been hit by train. Scan showed spread to glands in chest. How long has he got, is going to have chemo and radiotherapy.

  • Welcome to the forum Zetland although I'm really sorry to read that your husband's lung cancer has spread to the glands in his chest.

    Only his medical team can give you a guideline to how long he may have left so do make sure you and your husband sit down with them at some point to get your questions answered. In the meantime you can find out more about advanced lung cancer, including general survival statistics for this diagnosis, just here.

    Kind regards,
