Here in NC it also just went up. I think it's around $1.35 pack now. When I lived in NJ it was $2.57 a pack which I believe is the highest in the nation.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. My surgeon has told me he refers all his patients to an oncologist no matter what stage the cancer is (mine is T2 1b - only because of the size). I see the surgeon for after surgery follow up on June 2nd.

Hi,

I'm Paulette, 62, who smoked for 42 years. On 4/02/09 my primary doctor did a chest x-ray because I had not had one for years. He saw a suspicious spot on my upper left lung. I had a CT scan the next day which showed a large (over 4 cm) mass. The next week I had a PET scan which showed only the one spot in my lung.

On 5/01/09 I had the upper lobe of my left lung removed (VATS). I just got out of the hospital 4 days ago. No cancer was found in the lymph nodes removed during surgery but the mass was NSCLC.

I'm trying to stay positive and am now waiting to heal from surgery. But of course deep down - I'm scared.
