TMI for my own good...

Because of in-law family members and Viet Nam- Agent Orange, I was and have been fully aware of oat cell or small cell cancer.  As one can imagine, I was shocked when I received a phone call telling me I needed some further x-rays...and, that my sodium level was low.   Had not felt well, but, thought it was just the COPD acting us, when I went to Dr... I told him what I had... he was stunned.  I was admitted to hospital same day.  From no tumor to 6.1 centimeter hmmmm.  The next two weeks were crazy... in the hospital.

This is the beginning of my journey through lung cancer.  Oat cell/small cell is the diagnosis.  I have already beat to breast cancers and this is a next phase.


I was dismayed to find no Chat, support groups so, I decided to start my own. 


It's already been interesting, in that each patient is individual.  I would love to chat with survivors and find what has worked for them.
