Poll for Smokers and Ex-Smokers

[Elaine]

I am working on an article and would like to know the following. Please only answer this poll if you were a current smoker at DX OR had smoked at least 20 pack years (1 pack a day x years smoked= pack years) and had quit smoking within 10 years of DX. You may answer for a loved one if you know the answer or can find it out.

Pls also only answer if you were age 39 or older at DX.

Are you asking if PCP ordered these tests prior to or after dx?

Good Point Bruce! Prior.

Well, in trying to fix it, I made a mess of it!!! lol

I guess I can just do the percentages myself. So just hit one of the xray boxes or one of the Cat Scan boxes etc etc.

I can do the math after the poll is done.

Thanks and you look mighty handsome, Bruce!!

Sorry--deleted post--I made a mistake. (did not do poll, yet, though, so I did not mess up your stats.)

Elaine,

The PCP did not order the chest x-ray, we requested it. It did not show the lc in the xray taken 4/01. Dx was 9/02.

I am just kicking this poll up to the top! Remember I messed it up, but you can still just click whatever tests your Gp or PCP nornally ordered for smokers and I can figure out the per cents!

Thanks!
