This is the first time I have been on this as I have kept my diagnosis secret, I was diagnosed in December, no treatment for the cancer, I had COPD I thought it was that making me really breathless, my family know now so I can stop hiding it

  • I am still in shock I think being told its spread and loosing my voice 

  • Hi there..i to have lung cancer what did spread to lymph nodes and brain...terminal but treatable.i was diagnosed in October 2015!!!!! still alive and living life 

  • I am not getting treatment they told me there was nothing they can do 

  • Oh bless you. What have they told you is the next step in regards to a follow up.

  • Good morning Njec123, if you press on my picture you can read my profile. The cancer spread to my lungs and othere places after bowel cancer. It really takes time. Get in touch with Macmillan help line or your cancer nurse for some counselling and some  Reiki or massage to relax you, it really does help. Sending hugs xx

Try to focus on the positive things even tho it might not seen like there is any at thr moment u will be surprised how strong you are . .wen I spoke to my consultant he sed wen he told me my outcome he had to go by sasistics as no two people are the same. I hope you keep chatting to us all and find comfort x

  • I wish you didn't need to post! However, even though this is the worst group to need it is the very best to be part of. People are so supportive and we have more chance of understanding the ups and downs. X
