@lls8000 Hi. First after presenting my case to the tumor board my lung Dr told me it looked like they would probably be able to just remove the tumor surgically. I was so relieved. But when I met the medical oncologist for first time on Friday he said the tumor is 4.2 cm c 4 cm so stage 2. It is sitting on the bottom of my upper left lobe, on the fissure between upper & lower lobes, and at center of chest, with 2 little something’s hanging down. He said I need to do 4 cycles of 3 weeks of Carboplatin & Pemetrexed before any surgery and he wants to start in 2 1/2 weeks as soon as my breast radiation is done. He referred me for chest port implant. I have brain mri tomorrow. I meet with surgeon Tuesday. I’m not sure how to find out if my records were sent for 2nd opinion. I’m trying to look into cold capping to save my hair. Friends keep sending me info on avoiding chemo and doing an ivermectin protocol instead. Im feeling quite overwhelmed.
