Guest bucky_a Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 Hola, I;m really happy to found this site. 5 month ago I was diagnosed with NSC Stage IB. In 2 years I had 3 X Rays, they always were pwrfect, small detail a the Xr never show up the 3&1/2 tumor. The only treatment was surgery , but I am really scared because they only want to do Xrays every 3 month & CT every 6, really don't know, and even they said I have a great porcentage of no recurrence, I'dont know. Please give me some advice. Iam married for a 2nd time, have 4children and in october I will be a grand mother, I am 48 born in Argentina and live in Greensboro, NC.

gail Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 I was NSCLC stage 1A, 2 years ago, with the only treatment being surgery. I was and still am being closely followed by the oncologist, and got the xrays and CAT scans on the same schedule. Did you get several opinions? That might help put your mind at ease. I have found my anti-depressents work well also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
