Hi, my husband has been diagnosed with lung cancer stage 3c. Only symptom was a hoarse voice. He’s had radiotherapy but it hasn’t helped. They’re now suggesting chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy. It’s inoperable. He’s really not keen as doesn’t fancy the side effects. Says he’d prefer quality of life. Can anyone reassure him that it’s not so bad as he fears?
