My mother was diagnosed this past week with lung cancer that spread to her lymph system. I presume this means she's had it for a good long while. She says she feels fine internally, but her skin is red and flaky (as if at the ass-end of a horrendous sunburn), the result of a presently dysfunctional immune system.
I've been reading everything I can and my eyes are glossed over. Could somebody with experience please tell me how spreading correlates to which stage the cancer is at?
Is lymphoma the last frontier? Is lymphoma even the right word for this? Have you heard of any means to make it stop, regress, or disappear altogether? Please share any details.
