enyaw061032 Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 After a series of incorrect diagnoses, saying I had a recurrent of my bronchoalveolar stage la lung cancer; then cat scan confirming had it all over the place; and PET SCAN lighting me up like a Xmas tree, bronchoscope failed; so had mediatinoscopy and got tissue for biopsy, etc. and MRI, ETC. was diagnoses with new cancer, different type called SCLC. Have 2 masses, some lymph node involvement and mass on spine (might be why I had so much hip and back pains, among other things). I had a medaport installed and got my first CHEMO yesterday; managed to get through it OK; slightly nauseated this morning. I am just so glad finally have a diagnosis and treatment plan going.

enyaw061032 Posted December 25, 2006 Author Share Posted December 25, 2006 Thanks so much for your post. I am trying to take one day at a time now, because that is about all I can handle. For some reason, once I finished the first chemo this past week, I felt OK that day and the next, but then have been very, very nauseated and tired. It's an awful feeling.
