Hi, I had surgery for lung cancer in 2018 and regular 3 monthly scans ever since. I had one session of chemo but it made me so ill I took the decision not to have any more. I am 76. Now there are signs the cancer has returned and although I feel well in myself I am nervous about starting treatment  (Erlotinib) next week. I would be grateful to hear from anyone who has experience of this. Thank you.

    Hi

    welcome to the community. You’ve come to the right place to find other people who’ve been through similar experiences to you so I hope I can point you in the right direction to find them.

    I hope the treatment goes well with minimal side effects and maximum cancer shrinking effects
