Judy-OK Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 Hi folks. Was diagnosed with non small cell lung cancer about 5 or 6 weeks ago. I start radiation next Monday and chemo next Friday. Looking for a place to learn and share and make buddies and seek support and information. Thanks. Judy Quote

marym Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 Hi Judy, I'm sorry you had to find a need for the board, but welcome. I know how daunting the original diagnosis can be - and then to add all the medical treatment questions. I had radiation first to alleviate pain I was having and then began chemo a while later. Let us know if you have questions or just need to vent. Mary Quote
