Hello, I'm just starting to learn how to use this site and am looking forward to getting information and encouragement from this internet community. I am eighty years young and am in general good health. My only symptoms of lung cancer is a mucousy cough especially in the morning. I have been recently dx with stage IV adenocarcinoma since I have a moderate sized tumor in my left lung and several small spots in my left and right lungs. So far the cancer is contained to just my lungs. I am getting some second and third opinions in the next 2 weeks and need to decide whether I should take chemo or not. My MD says chemo is my only option and that there's only a 35% chance that my tumor would even respond to the chemo. Since I have such a good quality of life now, I do not know what I should do. Looking forward to seeing if any of you have any ideas, suggestions, or opinions concerning whether I should take chemo or not.

Hello,
My daughter stoydc (shirley) got me onto this site and I have just been recently dx with stage IV adenocarcinoma lung cancer on 1/12/04. I am in general good health and have no symptoms except for a mucousy cough especially in the morning. I need to decide whether I want to take chemo or not, since chemo is my only option according to my doctor. If I choose to not do chemo and choose a more alternative treatment does anyone know how I could locate a holistic doctor here in Sacramento, CA? Jick
