Lung Cancer Has Totally Turned My Life Upside Down

I had currently had other health conditions, White Matter Disease in the brain, hyponatremia, low sodium, broken clavicle, had a plate and screws put in right clavicle, causing neuropathy and constant pain. Then during an ER visit, a routine chest x-ray, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung cancer, it had already moved into my liver. With multiple medical conditions, I am now waiting on SSDI to approve my disability and living with no income is no fun. Be proactive with your health, you never know what could happen when you least expect it.

  1. I am so sorry to hear all you are going through, it's a lot, hopefully your SSDI will be approved soon. Are you in treatment for your lung cancer now? Warmly, Alisa, LungCancer Team Patient Leader
