Hi all I am a 68 year old man who was told two days ago I have lung cancer, I'm here to try and get my head around what is happening and what journey I'm about to start.I have a strong determination to beat this but have no idea yet what treatment I'm going to get.

  • Sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I was diagnosed in 2016 with stage 3 lung cancer. I was given chemo and radiotherapy, it was very difficult going through the treatment.  I was then put on the new Immunotherapy which shrunk my tumour but it damaged my thyroidSamsung and nearly damaged kidneys but all is ok now.

    I was cancer free until last scan showed it reappearing. I will gave more treatment in January.  

    You seem strong willed and that will take you far. Try not to think too far ahead, take one day at a time and you will be fine. 

     

    Thinking of you. Stay positive,  it really helps

  • Thanks Tet, 

    The first thing that has hit me is that there are so many with this problem and so many kind people who will help others through their coming trials. When I'm through mine I will also help anyone I can. I'm very humbled by the kindest of everyone I have spoken to over the last few days.

    Thank you for your part in the help given to me
