I was diagnosed stage 4 nsclc and had 4 yrs tagrisso 2yrs conventional chemo and some radiation. My focus is on healthy diet choices like green mushrooms green tea vit D and C. This is the 7th year on a 3 year prognosis. Stay positive as the meds keep improving and look at the things that can be controlled

Congrats on 7 years @arne! I agree with your positive outlook. I've been taking the same targeted therapy (for ALK+ lung cancer) for the past five years, I was told that it may work for three. We aren't statistics, we're all different, and we all react to treatments in different ways. There is great promise in the future of lung cancer treatments and our lives depend on it.
Are you on any continuing treatment at this time?
