gwizp Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I am a 74 year old female from Michigan. I was dx in May, 2007 with SCLC-ext and only given 2 to 4 weeks to live with no treatment. Have since had 5 series of chemo(carboplaten/etoposide) Have a cat scan scheduled for October 17. If scan shows no malignancy in bone, I will have WBR -15 treatments. I take things one day at a time and have great support from my family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
