[quote=donfoo]Hello Nick,

I'm sorry to hear about the new cancer. Has it been diagnosed as recurrence since you mention spreading? Cancer treatment option are influenced by prior cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Since you have already been through one of the common treatment plans - surgery/chemo/rads, you know much about the processes which will guide you along.

Having two sets of ears helps during all medical meetings and keep good notes and write questions down to ask.

If you can post more specifics of the diagnosis that would help get more specific replies.

Test is on Tuesday to determine whether it is OC related or a new lung cancer. Mom has been feeling a lot of side effects from the cancer in the lung and yesterday it was determined that this cancer has grown. If this cancer is lung is not OC related (which we are praying for), we will have more treatment options.
