21 years?? Wow. If that doesn’t give all of us NSCLC hope I don’t know what would. When I started the chemo in 3-16 I had everything done. In January of 2018 my oncologist said that she has run out of treatments for me and that should except this and go do my bucket list. Well you know what I wanted to do with that bucket. Anyways I call the National Institute of Health in Bethesda Maryland and was able to get in on a trial. At my 7th treatment my team of doctors told me that the 2 large tumor on the right side had decreased by over 60% but there are 3 little ones that were continually getting bigger. So of that trial. I live in Wisconsin. To make that trip every 28 days of 11 hours, needless to say I searched for someplace closer. I am in the beginning steps to see if Mayo can help me.
Wow. 21 years. That is fu””omg awesome

@lizdorn - Good morning. It must be very very upsetting to hear that you have to pack up your bag for your next life from a doctor. Have you been told that you have Multifocal adenocarcinoma? It means many nodules at once. I'm glad that you are trying to get into see a doctor at Mayo Clinic. When you said that you had everything done are you including surgery? How are you feeling?
