Hi. I am new to the board and just after 6 months of remission I found out the my cancer has returned. I have a small tumor in the right upper lobe of the lung. It first began in the left lower lobe which had to be removed along with the tumor and two lymph nodes. Then back in August of last year I found two knots on my neck (left side). This turned out to be cancer in my lymph nodes. I had to go through chemotherapy from Sept 2002 thru Jan 2003. Now it is back. I have my faith in God. He got me through it before and He will again. I was told by my doctor that it was a good probablity that the cancer would return between 6 months to 1 year. I was still shocked to hear the news but yet in the back of my mind it wasn't a surprise. Has anyone else been through the cancer regime 3 or more times and lived a long life? I am only 49. I planned to live a long life - God willing.
Thank you for listening. (Lynda)
