Hello Lisa: Sorry, I just saw this message. I have stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Adenomcarcinoma. I went through chemotherapy and radiation initially and for a recurrence about two years later (carboplatin, alimta, and avastin) and then was diagnosed and treated for prostate cancer in the middle of the lung cancer. I have been treatment-free for about 26 months. I also pursued acupuncture and high-dose vitamin C in conjunction with these standard treatments.

@paulseyferth, There are too many of us with multiple cancers. None of us want to be experts at this, but we find ourselves navigating a world that we never wanted to be a part of. I attend an in-person group of stage IV patients that have all lived beyond what was initially expected. The knowledge shared and connections made have been comforting.
I'm glad you are doing well and figured out how to truly live with stage IV cancer.
