Lung cancer along with serious health issues: Treatment options?

Posted by jamie69 @jamie69, Feb 2, 2023

So 2 years ago I was told I might have lung cancer. Last year I had pet scan that revealed there was something there. Now I had a lung biopsy and my lung collapsed. So I'm told I have this problem but not healthy enough for treatment I had 5o strengthen up. I also have COPD osteoarthritis and had a full fusion in wrist and now on top of all that last month I had a stimi heart attack. But I was wondering why am I not sick or dying from this so called cancer with no treatment

I'm sorry for the confusion. How is Ed now?

Hi Merry!
Ed's doing fine! His memory is improving quite a bit. I think the effects of the CT Scan medicine is beginning to wear off. Plus the Gatorade and water seem to be working. It wasn't a large memory loss but just small things like how he always made deviled ham sandwich mix etc. Ed was the one who noticed his memory loss initially. The doctor liked the idea of the Gatorade and water. He wants to see him again in 2 months.

PML - 🙂 I'm so glad to hear this. It's tough when a spouse isn't himself/herself. Takes a good sense of what he needed!
