thats’ great news- they are doing tons with cancer now- I had a recent scare after having pneumonia- there wer spots left on the lungs- docs thoguh it was cancer- I came very close to havign 2/3 of lung taken out- but I asked for a biopsy doen first- just to be sure it was cancer- turns otu there was no sign of cancer cells- and several biopsie samples were taken- Doc was surprised- I was relieved- but they still don’t know what caused the spots- still have a little left- but it’s almost gone now 1 year later-
but it took a few months of testing- it was draining just worrying those months- can’t imagine how draining it must have been for you and your wife to go through having it- Must have been awful
During that time I researched cancer and treatments- and learned even small cell cancers aren’t the horror they used to be- There have been huge advances in treatments-
I’m very glad you didn’t have 2/3 of your lung removed!!!!
Doctors are sometimes more dangerous than the illness! Even at the “best” places we have in NYC.
It must have been VERY draining. I remember waiting only 5 days for test results on possible colon cancer polyp, 30 percent chance, it was negative.
Months, that’s brutal.
