Hey new here, but been reading a lot of the post that arre here. Im an 80 year old wih lung cancer. Kinda funny how it has all come about. Last Feb, I fell on Ice and hurt my shoulder. I had let it go forawhile until I finally went to the Doctor to have it checked. They most certainly knew that I had rotator cuff. But, an MRI was ordered. Turns out no Rotator cuff, but rather a tumor Went to a local radiation oncologist and then from there I went to Mayo. What A GREAT experience that was. At any rate, I just started Immune therapy once every three weeks. After my first treatment, there seems to be no side affects. Dont know how long that wll last.Right now I feel very good.
Thanks for you forum
Merle

@mbach1074 - Welcome to Mayo Connect and good morning. My lung cancer was found much like yours! I bumped into something and after a couple of weeks, when the pain hadn't subsided I had an Xray- It was very obvious that I had a lung tumor and not broken rib. I'm glad that you are already in treatment. What kind and stage of lung cancer do you have?
