My Oncologist is doing a PET scan in October to find out further info. Meanwhile, I have an appt with Moffitt in July. Meeting with the surgeon that removed my RUL for his opinion on what I should do.

Hi lovey529, I am also a senior who fought cancer in the lungs twice in the past two years…both times the tumour was small and they were surgically removed and no chemo or radiation…I was told that if I have any tumours I would have radiation instead of surgery because my lungs aren’t strong enough for anymore surgery…I must say that it’s scaring me to have this done and I haven’t had the nerve to ask anyone else about their experience with this treatment. When I read your post I related to you even though our experience has been quite different but at the end of the day we are all going through the same thing, of course there’s always differences in our cases and care, now that you have opened the door I will also look forward to hearing from others what they went through, all the best to you and I hope to hear more about how you’re doing.
