Thank you. I was reviewing my messages and I was trying to address this cough with two dictirs since Sept and all I got was "quit smoking". Going back to Mayo is just not a possibility. My husband is dealing with health issues and I have nobody else. Anyone ever been to Mayo in AZ? Stanford? UCSF? I get the PET scan today. I am so nervous over all this, I feel sick.

@margot69- Welcome and know that my heart goes out to you. It's a horrible feeling when you think that you have nowhere to turn for help. Twenty-one years ago when I felt that I had no where to go I turned to the American Cancer Society. They have all sorts of services and recommendations and most of them are free.
Is your husband being treated anywhere where you can be treated too? You really do need to concentrate on you too! Can a neighbor or relative help with your husband or you?
I know that we don't want to disturb our child's lives but hey, sometimes they just have to chip in and help us out.
I wont say anything about your smoking- you know that it's bad for you. BUT if you have cancer it might be a good idea to think about it.
Ar you having any biopsies?
