@vic83, Thanks for resurrecting this post. It's emotional to look back at the place that I was in over four years ago when I was just being diagnosed and just discovering Mayo Connect. I've come so far, learned so much about lung cancer and about myself. I'm also facing breast cancer now, and having stage IV lung cancer certainly impacts some of the decisions and choices that I am making. Quality of life is very important to me, and I feel that I've been a bit spoiled by my lung cancer targeted therapy.
I do still see my PCP on a regular basis. She has helped to keep my non-lung related care in check; including other illnesses, screenings, and those labs that aren't generally followed by oncology. I feel that she's always happy to see me, and to get the update on how I'm doing.
