I've just been diagnosed with primary lung cancer and have my first chemotherapy and immunotherapy this week. Still getting to grips with it all as not really been ill and it was picked up with a chest xray due to a viral infection. So I feel quite lucky really as I feel quite well but no doubt that will change.
