  • Hi Welcome

    We  use the word, incurable  but treatable, rather than terminal, as that is when no treatment can be given. and sounds better.

    Positivity is the way to go, i was also diagnosed with lung cancer, stage 4, from day one.

    Still here moaning and groaning, its not over to the fat lady sings.

    I am not singing yet i can assure you.

    I have done chemo, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy..

    Once you find out your treatment plan, you will know which way you are going, we all get a plan.

    Will be others here, that more than likely, will have been on what you are going to have,   the group is a world of information, and all comes threw their own journey.

    You will use this group a lot, i would not have got this far with out it.

  • I am sure that being part of this group will be a godsend

  • Hi Shazzy, and a very warm welcome from me, love your attitude being positive is half the battle, best wishes with your treatment and feel free to ask any questions, there's usually someone around 24 hours a day, take care.

  • Hi Shazzy, A warm welcome. With a positive attitude like that, you are half way there! Ellie is right, once you have your treatment plan, you will get on the rollercoaster of treatment etc and settle into what needs done. 
    There are a lot of us here passed our sell by date, so hopefully once your treatment starts, then kicks in, you will join us, just be patient!

    Love Annette x

  • Hi Shazzy, i have been in the same situation as you, terminal lung cancer, not operable, given 10 to 12 months to life.

    Well this was nearly 9 years ago, still here, had chemo and immuno therapy. Stay positiv, you can do this.

  • I don't know were the dots on my post have come from must ɓe something I've pressed by mistake. Lol. I've slept well and my new wake up time is around the 6am time. The mornings are still darkish. I'm just getting up to make coffee. Hope you all had a decent night. XX
