Guest Tim'sKathy Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 You guys are all so knowledgeble...I am sure you saw my post about Tim and the CT scans showing an enlarged lymph node under his arm which Dr. E thinks is the cancer and "something" on a vertebrae... What I need to know if how bad is it if it has gone to that Lymph node? She is putting him on Iressa 7/7 and she feels that not only would that continue to shrink the lung tumor but would take care of the lymph node. Also, what would be done if it is mets on the vertebrae? Is this a big setback ???? I am just so scared .... Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shelliemacs Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 I dont think one lymph node is horrid, my mom has it in 2. Our onc. is still positive that chemo will kill the sucker. Vert. can be zapped with radiation. this can be treated I believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
