Question:

Been diagnosed with non - small cell lung cancer, I am interested in hearing from REAL people who have gone through, or are going through the same thing. I would like to know what treatment option may work best, what side affects I can expect, and anything else that you think you want to tell me. I feel like I am a sponge and could soak it all in. And of course, I could use your prayers always. Thanks alot.

Answers:
This is a general bulletin board with many different kinds of people on here. This really isn't the best place to connect with people who have this specific cancer. I can point you to some online message boards and mailing lists that have people with your type of cancer. They are the best resource for you as you can share stories and information. It is critical that you get some good advice from these types of resources. I am a member of several groups and they have been enormously helpful.

Best wishes to you. Stay strong and focused and do the research.

Other than knowing that my mothers lung cancer spread to her liver, I have not much experience, however, I will keep you in my prayers.
Good Luck
