Hi have just joined this group. My lung doc found a tumour in my lower right lung and my lymph nodes are enlarged. Had a pet scan, a brain scan and a Ebus endoscopy, and a dna(?) blood test. Am currently waiting for the results.
doc says it’s cancer but I keep wondering maybe he is wrong and it’s just a cyst. Then I believe what he says and it scares me
Hello Terry55,
A warm welcome to the online community, although I'm very sorry you have the need to join.
I'm sorry to hear that you've been undergoing lung investigations, it is frightening waiting for final results but all is not lost.
I was also diagnosed with cancer in my right lung leading to surgery and chemotherapy, but this was in 2014 and I clebrated my 12 year survival anniversary in June this year. Treatments have improved immensly since then and the outlook is better now than ever before.
I'd like to suggest you join our lung community and repost there for practical advice and information from others who have similar experiences. I've placed a link below to enable you to get onto the site.
Do come back if you have more questions as and when things progress.
Best wishes, Derek.
