As a Registered Nurse, it would be unethical for me to lie to you, or to give you false hope. Over 95% of all lung cancer patients die within 5 years of the date of the diagnosis. This is because it is usually diagnosed at advanced stages. The other reason is that all of your blood passes through the lungs to be oxygenated, the heart sends the oxygen-rich blood to the rest of your body and some of the cancer cells travel along and implant themselves in other body organs and/or tissues such as bone marrow forming new malignant growths {this is a process known as metastases}. You’ll have to discuss your particular case with your attending Oncologist. If you are not satisfied with the treatment you are receiving get a second medical opinion. Seek support in peer group meetings.Talk to your priest/minister/rabbi/shaman or the leader or whatever your religious faith is. Hope my advice has been of help.
