Anyone had Concurrent Radiation and Chemo Therapies?

@lls8000
I’ll tell ya Lisa, I have mixed feelings.
Yesterday, I received the radiologist report about the 5/15 CT scan.
There are some positives to take away in so far as the impact on the mass. However, my lungs are in bad shape (fibrosis and emphysema and new pneumonitis indicators). I have to be a realist and recognize that the treatment bought me some time but the likelihood of a cure and/or long term survival doesn’t look very promising.
Anyway, I’m hoping that my red blood cell numbers improve so that by breathing improves.

@andycapp, Mixed feelings are to be expected. These things are never all that straight forward. But we can take one day at a time, and for now, focus on the good that's in front of you. There will be plenty of time for the additional complications later.
I'm hoping that your breathing gets better too.
