I was treated to asthma for about a month before an x-ray revealed fluid around my right lung...the cat scan revealed the mass. The pleural effusion shows cancerous cells, too. the PET scan shows some lymph nodes, but thankfully nothing in any major organs or brain. (having an MRI just to be sure about the brain) Haven't started anything yet, want to get into a clinical trial, they are sufggesting Tarceva. I have a 4 and a 7 year old - I MUST survive!!
