@amdabrock1, I'm sorry to hear these details. Those driver mutations I listed are found primarily in nonsmokers. Chemo and immunotherapy is the current recommendation for non-small cell in smokers.

Ask your oncologist about palliative care the next time you see him. Palliative care is designed to help patients deal with the side effects of their treatments, including pain. My doctor sent me to a pain management clinic which has been able to help with my chronic pain. I pray that you can find some relief.

I'm scheduled to start palliative care to coordinate with the radiation. I
just hope, in my current condition, I will be able to stay immobile during
the radiation. The last two CT scans have been torture and the discomfort
increases daily.
