Hi just would like to know if anyone gets water infections and a swollen tummy with their lung cancer? As I’ve got a uti and my tummy is swollen my tummy doesn’t hurt but it’s painful when I pee. Because of my copd and emphysema they can’t operate, they waiting to see if the doctor at the cancer unit looks at my case to see if I could have radiotherapy? I’ve asked my McMillan nurse what if I can’t have radiotherapy what treatments will I have ? But she says we will discuss this and alternate treatments if this happens but would not say what treatments this may be? And I think I feel worse health wise since I was diagnosed? Before I was just waiting for my results and it was always in the back of my mind but that was all and now I’m coughing more I’m getting water infection my breathing is worse my sleeping is much much worse I’m having more pain in my back. I’m so sorry for twisting I just thought maybe someone may be the same, love Yvonne xx
