Hello everyone. I am a Lung Cancer survivor! I was diagnosed with stage IIIB non-small cell in Feb 2004. The tumor was rather small but was hiding a second one so the stage was worse than originally expected. Probably like many others, I had no symptoms and it was discovered truly by accident. I had surgery and chemo. and was cancer free until Oct. 2005 when a brain tumor was discovered. Surgery again and Gammaknife radiation this time. I have been cancer free since then.
I'm 56 and NEVER smoked.
I thought I would like to help others if I can, it's difficult to talk to your own family and friends sometimes. I would also like to have others to talk to.
