  1. Hi my 39 year old female friend was recently diagnosed with a pancoat tumor on her left lung apex. She has been in extreme pain for several months and has seen 5 surgeons to find one to remove it. I have a couple of questions: 1 everything I read says that chemo and radiation are the 1st thing before surgery, but they said the location won't allow for radiation and they will biopsy it before determining if she needs chemo. Has anyone had surgery without chemo and/or radiation? 2 how can I help her? Any info you can also give me about the pain she will go through would also be helpful as she is petrified of the amount of pain she may be facing. Thank you
