I have non-small-cell lung cancer with mets to node, jaw and adrenal gland. Mine is 'incurable'
I have had 4 cycles of carboplatin/gemcitabine therapy and my primary tumour has shrunk by more than 50%
I don't know how much longer I've got.
I am reviewed every 2 months for any palliative treatments which may help--but they ARE only palliative.
Other types of lung-cancer can be cured or halted, I believe, but your docs are the only people really to discuss it with.
I'm currently doing very well with 'palliative', so bear that in mind and try to not get too down.
