Hey everyone, I am currently undergoing tests for a tumour that has been found in my lung completely by accident during an x-ray. I was unsure about joining the community because I am in the limbo stage with no real answers yet but, I'm feeling really isolated, upset and scared with not a lot of support around me and hoped reaching out might help me through this. I'm not sure what else to say, maybe someone else feels like this too?
Hi and welcome to the community. The way you feel will be very familiar to many of us here. The early days of uncertainty and not knowing can be very stressful and our minds go in to overdrive. Hopefully you will get lots of support and answers here from those who understand. Could I point you to the friendly LUNG GROUP . There you will find people with experience of this and will be able to guide you through things. Click the highlighted link to get to the group. Once you join the group, you can then post your concerns there. Any problems navigating the site, then click the reply button below to ask. I hope all goes well for you. Best wishes.
