  1. Thank you all for the warm welcome. My girlfriend (of 15 years) also says thanks; she was touched. Regards, Jon
  2. Thanks all for the warm welcome. The pet scan ended any hopes of the anomalies found in the ct being scar tissue. regards, Jon
  3. Thank you all for the words of encouragement. As it stands I plan on getting information from my oncologist (away at a conference this week), UC Davis as they have a few trials, and Sloane Kettering as they also have several ongoing trials. These are all places that I can relatively easily visit, but if anyone thinks there is another place I should look at please let me know. Again, thank you for the kind words. Jon

    recurrence

    I've been told that my sclc is back. Last summer I had the cisplatin/etopiside and radiation series of treatment to include pci. At the time they said they thought there was no living cancer in my body....guess times change. I am trying to find what has worked for people here who had a recurrence. I am also wondering if there is anyway of getting current information about trials. For example, if a trial has been ongoing for a while is there anyway of finding out how successful it has/is been/being? Without this info I feel at a loss as to how to choose one. What guidelines have y'all used to help choose a trial???? Thank you for any help. Jon Woodard
  5. Last July I was diagnosed with sclc. Went through the chemo; did the radiation, to include PCI. Scans looked good. Then a few weeks ago I started coughing a lot which led to a ct scan....there were some irregularities. Had a pet scan last week that showed 3 lesions. The radiologist and pulmonologist are confident its cancer, but my onc wants me to have a biopsy. This will probably happen later this week or monday. I just found this website today and have read some uplifting stories, and damn do I need some of those now. I am also hoping to find ideas on different treatments so I can be as informed as possible as to the the different options when I next speak with my onc. I will post over in the sclc forum for that though. Regards, Jon Woodard
