Welcome, your mom is a lucky lady to have such a wonderful daughter looking after her. Even though school has started it sounds like you have gotten her thru her big hurdle and if she needs you by her side again you will know. Keep us updated

Nonni, lets hope it is infection and not what I just went through. I was told after treatment sometimes the nodes dont go back to regular size. Prayers your way. Try not to worry too much, how many times have we all over reacted for no reason. Love ya

Lung cancer is never at the topped because it's etched in peoples minds that it is a self induced cancer and as we all know in this site that is SO UNTRUE, I hope in my lifetime to see that changed it is very discouraging for us that have or know someone with the desease.

Katie, thanks so much for all you do, we all think it but sometimes forget to say it. So here it is.
We love you !

I too would leave it to your parents they will know when you are most needed, FLMA can only be taken for 6 months so timing has to be as just right. But you must always trust your heart and set your own priorities also on what you feel is right. I agree the conversation needs to take place for a decision to be made. When my mother took ill and my sister and I took turns caring for her, taking FLMA was a decision I never regreted. Take care.

Chesney, I have not had any experience with Altima although alot of people on this site have had it. As for the procit it is a weekly injection which I did not have, they gave me aranesp which is given every 3 weeks and boost the red cells and helps with fatigue. Best of luck.

I too think it is not the radiation, alot of people in this site have found after a few treatments and the tumor starts to shrink the coughing gets better, I would be more inclined to think maybe he might be getting pneumonia, I would call the doctor, I did develope bi-lateral pneumonia caused by the radiation and was put in the hospital for treatment. My symptoms were just a low grade fewer and general joint aches. Let us know.

I do not know either what that means, I agree with Don that Dr. West would be the one to ask. Also maybe someone from this site will know the answer.
Lets us know when you do find out. Thinking of you and your family..

Glad mom is okay, I'm sure she did what she felt was best. Breathe.....

Could not have said it better then Maryanne did. Know that your mom will be with you through your journey in your heart.

Hang in there Aaron, don't wait so long to post, we miss you.

Connie, I agree with you, I have my moments but decided some months ago not to let it control my life. I live for the day, sure cancer is always on my mind and if it comes to surface again I will deal with it, life is life and some of us could be worse off then we are. The new norm is exactly what it is and there is so much stress with life in general why add to it. I've got to the point I was tired of worring about it. I dont feel good every single day but when I do I make the most of it. I still get depressed and have an off day now and then, but dont let it control me and tell myself tomorrow is a new day.

For me, I use this site to voice my concerns, my son has his head in the sand, and my sister is so senative and is such worrier about everything, my daughter will listen and lend a shoulder and my husband is always so positive that I feel I can't talk to him too much because he thinks I worry too much. Thank God for this site......Heaven sent it is...

I would look up all the medications she is taking on the internet to see if one of the side effects is cough. Or call your pharmacy they will tell you. Good luck
