I've recently been diagnosed with lung cancer in my right lung measurements are 3.9cm x 2.9cm, I'm due for a biopsy going down my throat which im really scared of as my fear of gagging, have anyone had this and how was it, thanks 

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    It's natural to worry about a procedure that you haven't had before and your best bet to find out how others have found it would be to post your question in the lung cancer group, which I can see you've joined. When you're ready you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.

    It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and proposed treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
