Hi my partner has advanced lung cancer stage 4 diagnosed a year ago chemotherapy and immuotherapy stopped working he was due to start a new treatment yesterday but hes been hospitalized because of breathing problems .We have found out today he has blood clots on both lungs its so scary does anyone know if his chemo will go ahead now .They have started him on blood thinners thanks for listening .
Hi Holmes, it has been a few days since you posted, and was wondering if there was any further news as to your partner starting treatment? X
So nice of you to get in touch .He is in hospital now he's poorly and a bit confused having blood thinners and antibiotics and on oxygen so a very worrying time I appreciate your concern .x
Hi Faithful, I'm so sorry to hear about your partners struggle with clots :( my dad has just been admitted to hospital with all the same things and he's very weak. We are hoping and hoping again that the thinners will work and they will continue a different treatment (immunotherapy and chemo did not work and the cancer spread to his bones and heart lining). Do you have an update at all?
