@frouke I quit smoking 10 years ago. I have a stomach PEG tube because I cannot swallow normally from throat cancer surgery 5 years ago, I am living on Glucerna since that surgery. Glucerna is like Ensure but for Type 2 diabetic patients like myself. I see my chemo doctor regularly and my blood numbers right now are lower then the range. Right now after my chest xray there shows to be either scarring from the past tumor or something is growing there again 4.5cm. My lung doctor and chemo doctor are suppose to be working together on this because the chemo doctor wants to recheck my North Start blood test ( like a blood tumor marker) next month to see if those number have gone higher. If they do back to chemo and radiation again...Wondering if that is causing my breathing issues. Also CAT scan a few months ago showed a partial upper left collapsed lung which my lung doc said it is getting better...Radiation has to be playing a big part in this.
