Hi @sharwi85, I'm sorry that you and your husband are dealing with this, but I'm glad that you found Mayo Connect. There are many or us here with lung cancer, living generally good lives. There is hope!
I'm glad that you'll be seeing oncology soon. It's nice to have a plan, and to move forward. 5.3cm is significant. Did your husband have a PET scan? Do you happen to know if his tumor was sent for biomarker testing?, if not you may want to ask the oncologist.
