Just diagnosed today lung cancer

Yes,  it is. Doesn't matter what kind you have the big C word is not something any of us wanted to hear. Join the forums for your specific type. Unbelievable , who would not think their is so many variants to your diagnosis. There are many folk on here who will help and understand your particular diagnosis. Be strong.

Thank you for replying,  i think my adrenalin is still "high"   i dont feel tierd, but know i need to sleep⁰,  i will know by next week how the C has progressed,  i guess it will hit me than,  Hope your ok and staying strong .

Your feeling this way because the shock is only starting to sink in. If I may give you some advice,  take someone with you to your next appointment as you'll be overwhelmed with what the next course of action will be,  always good to have another pair of ears there.  When you have the frame of mind to consider what the options are don't be afraid to ask as many questions as you want and the different outcomes that they propose to you. You will be strong.

Hi Evabella

It a lot to process so just allow yourself time

I felt I was in flight or fight unable to do either I froze in panicking mode 

I listened to apps on my phone that gave me head space. 
Keep chatting here if it helps 

sending you a virtual hug 

Aww, thanks for the hug,  really feel I need one,

I think the worse part is seeing my only childs face,  it was so obvious hes been crying,  i know hes a "man" and trying to put on a brave face,  but its tearing me apart

Im just carrying on as normal but hes like "  ill take you or ill do it ect,  ive politely told him we just carry on as normal until we get biopsy results,

My grown up grandbabies came last nyt with hugs and flowers,  cheered me up,  hugs to all that need/want one xx

It’s so hard on our children. My daughter burst into tears I don’t want to tell her anything but she gets so cross if I don’t c

Take care 

If it's any help I had lung cancer diagnosed and operated on 15 years ago and I've been fine until recently.  I did find te most difficult bit was getting my head around it; that was by far the trick to coping. Regards, Richard

It is normal ,you are in shock ,take your time ,I really did not know what to do when i was told ,i did not want to tell family because i had to get my head around it myself first ,then when i felt ready to face it all was when i told my family .stay strong ,take care ,everyone is here for you when you are ready to talk
