Hi my lung cancer is causing me so much anxiety atm, I’m having adjuvant chemo as I had a left lower lobectomy as a curative treatment but  they found cancer cells in 1/30 lymph nodes that didn’t show on the PET scan, is it normal to have all this anxiety?, I can’t seem to focus on anything apart from how long before my cancer returns?, I know in my head I’m very lucky to have caught it on a routine x ray and I’m getting monitored, does anyone else feel like this ?

  • Hi my lung cancer was found when I had a xray because I had a chest infection.i had the operation to remove part of my lung on 20th August. I am also thinking will it pop back up I think a lot of patients will feel the same and I suppose with time I will become more confident 

  • Hopefully we will, good luck for the future
