I was diagnosed 13 months ago with stage 3B NSCLC - single lesion in right lower lower lobe and mediastinal lymph nodes. After a course of radiation and chemo (4 cisplatin and alimpta) and going tthrough a bout of pneumonia and pneumonitis as well as esophagitis I started to feel human again. A month ago I felt a lump in my neck , had a pet scan and the node was hot but everything else was clear . The older lesions were NED. Biopsy of the node came back positive for NSCLC and now waiting for molecular testing to come back. Went from a Stage 3B to a 4 overnight. Devastated. The waiting is a killer. Would love to hear from other to figure how to manage this.emotionally and medically.
