I've Just Been Diagnosed

Subject: I've just been diagnosed
Date: 03/04/2008

Hello, I'm new to this board and am looking for support.  3 months ago I was diagnosed with severe squamus cell dysplasia and had a second biopsy last week and this time it is non small cell carcinoma.

I haven't seen an oncologist yet.  I still don't even know what stage I'm in or anything.  I'm pretty rattled but not as much as most I'd say, as I also have Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, which is under control right now and Scleroderma which is in remission.  So the diagnosis of yet a 3rd terminal disease didn't rock me as much as it could have.  I can't do chemo due to my enlarged right heart and the PAH, radiation doesn't seem an alternative either due to the lung damage from the Scleroderma.

I've been looking in to natural treatments or clinicals that lean that way and just haven't found anything yet.  I just wanted to drop in to say hi and get to know you all.
