I'm a 45 year old very athletic, small, non-smoking woman. I was diagnosed with Stage 1B NSCLC in 2004. I had a lobectomy and chemotherapy. It's been over 2 1/2 years. I know I'm an anomoly. I found mine in the very early stages. I feel very lucky. But I'm still a "cancer patient", which I don't enjoy. I've gotten very good treatment, but of course the doctors weren't optomistic. They don't quite know what to make of me. I haven't found much support among other cancer patients. There aren't many lung cancer survivors. If anyone out there is a lung cancer survivor like me, please email me: stephaniewithce@yahoo.com. I would love some comraderie.
