But he had no symptoms of lung cancer coming on just headaches dizziness and falling over once they took the tumor out on October 28 he was fine again until December of this year and a tumor had grown back in the same spot this time it was bigger but small headaches and a little bit of dizziness he wasn’t falling over and they just had to go back in and do brain surgery again on 7 December I have no clue if any of this information will help you I pray that it does I pray for all of you in this group I would like to speak to loved ones if possible to maybe help through the Saul if anyone like would like to contact me please feel free to do so I’m scared and I don’t know what to do what to expect even after dealing with this for a year someone please help .

I completely understand as I don’t have anyone to talk to also. I’m a widow & I live alone. My oldest son died in 2021 & my youngest son & his family live 3 hours. My father is dead & my mother has chronic back pain & is immobile. My younger sister lives with our mother & she is going through a divorce from her husband who abandoned her. My sister doesn’t visit me, help me, call me & rarely texts me. I have various cousins, a niece & nephew that are spread out in nearby states but are hours away from me. After I told my friends I had cancer, they quit contacting me. I have learned how to be my own care giver. It has been very difficult. I’ll admit I’ve been depressed, cried a lot, felt sorry for myself but I never gave up. I prayed & read my Bible everyday. Then I found cancer groups online like this one where I could share what I was going through & got empathetic responses. That really kept me going. I hope you find someone to talk to but I highly recommend the online cancer chat groups.

Hello Carenity members,
What were the symptoms that you originally experienced with lung cancer that made you seek medical advice? Please describe the symptoms and their duration before you sough medical advice/treatment.
My hopes is that this becomes a forum for users to reference in the future or for those that are possible concerned they may need to seek medical advice.
Thank you.
