Jeffrey N Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 so the oncologist was very specific about what cancer I have finally , stage 3 type a t3 with lymph nodes involved. I will have 4 chemo , 1 per week and 6 daily radiation treatments. I will stay in hospital for 6-8 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Galli Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Jeffrey, Stage 3A NSCLC? I recall there was a question about the type. Is it NSCLC and if so Adenocarcinoma or Squamous cell? I am confused about your post surgical treatment description. Will you be hospitalized? Are you to receive 6 weeks of radiation and 4 weeks of chemo, once per week? The radiation sounds odd post surgery. Did he give a reason? Stay the course. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Galli Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Jeffrey, That's not good! So they are hospitalizing you because of the current atelectasis and potential irritation of radiation and chemo, is that correct? Do let me know what the PET reveals. I hope it is just an aberration.... Stay the course. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
