What stage of cancer do people typically have 1year to live?

This is specific to Laryngeal cancer

 

All I've been told is that they have 3 lumps. What does this mean?

  • Hello poppyweller and welcome to our forum.

    When it comes to cancer, definites such as how long a person has to live giving the cancer stage may be difficult to estimate, impossible I'd say for someone who is not medically trained and not involved in the case. Three lumps could mean several things so it's really best to speak to the medical team in charge of the patient to get proper information.

    Having said that, we do have some information on our website about stages, grades and types of laryngeal cancer you may find of use, to read more please click here.

    I hope this helps.

    All the best,
