But my day is coming. I have lung cancer.
So sorry @PinCushion. Hugs and prayers.
Sorry chordy. Were you just diagnosed?
They found it when they xrayed my pneumonia.
I’m so sorry @PinCushion. There’s some good treatments out there coming online so hope there’s many a year left in you.
I’m so sorry. Feel free to talk here, if you want to.
Sorry to hear that @PinCushion wishing you the best
We’ve decided to leave it alone for now.
I hope you’re around for many more years Chordy.
I’m dealing with an elderly relative who has cancer. The doctors are optimistic. There’s a great chance of survival with cancer nowadays. It’s not like the old days.
It’s still a shock and a huge worry to get that diagnosis though.
You don’t have to answer this but is there any reason they’re leaving it alone for now?
Yes. The surgery would be too harsh on me. It is a mass about the size of a walnut.
Have they mentioned radiotherapy ? (Radiation to shrink it)
No, they haven’t.
There was also blood in my stools so there is more than one problem.
Hope you have more time to live.
They have alot of technology to treat compared to the past. Get well soon!
Sorry to hear chordy. Hope it goes away orr if you have to treat that it will go smoothly
I’m so sorry Chordy. I hope you can get treatment for it and it goes away
sorry to hear this @PinCushion =(
i hope it will be ok and that you can live with it for long time when not causing you too much problems.
What terrible news to receive @PinCushion. My thoughts are with you.
