Living with lung cancer - Introduce yourself & come say hi

I didn’t have an oncologist and my surgeon took out a 1.5cm tumor, tested modes and margins and everything was clean. So I didn’t do any DNA evaluation - didn’t even know to ask the question then. But the truth is I watched this one in annual ct
Screenings go from 6 to 14mm over four years. So if I were to see another one, I won’t have surgery again. Therefore I don’t care about the dna 🙂

I wasn’t aware that targeted therapy was so prevalent. I will ask at my next appointment but if not done, won’t request it. If I have a reoccurrence, would have it then just to see. But heck, I’m already 73.
