EFRG variant stage 1A lung cancer: What treatment did you have?

I'm grateful to read that they caught this so early. Surgery is usually only done with curative intent. At stage 1A, standard of care is to observe for two years.

If you want to consider a systemic treatment, then consider a clinical trial. Get a second opinion at a university with a med school and a hospital. They will be able to tell you if you qualify for a clinical trial.

Do you know which EGFR mutation you have? Exon18, 19, 20 or other?

Thank you, but is the standard of care STILL to observe for 2 years when the variant is present? I have Exon 20.
