My Lung Cancer

Last April, had my regular checkup, doctor was happy that I lost some weight, but after all blood work, she told me it was all good.

Checking in about a new pain

Then 4 months later, I started to feel pain on my right upper side, shoulder, it felt like muscle strained, since I work around the house so much, Keep in mind I never smoked, back in October finally I emailed my Dr. about my pain, she told me to go to her office asap.

Diagnosis tests

Once in the office they did an X-ray of my chest and the nightmare began. I was sent to ER, they admitted me and so many tests, removed liquid of my right lung, CT scan, MRI, Petscan etc etc my diagnostics is adenocarcinomanon small cells, non-operable, January started chemo, April 5 will be my last chemo to follow up with immunotherapy, just praying for God to have his hand on me.
