Lung cancer, chances of spreading?

currently, my uncle was diagnosed with lung cancer and it is inoperable due to it being too large, today he went for a brain scan and a bone scan, for some reason only part of the brain was scanned and he has been complaining about a small pain behind his eye, the results of the scans are being given tomorrow is it going to be bad news

The most common places that lung cancer can spread to are

The lymph nodes within the chest, or in the abdomen, neck, or armpit
The liver
The bones
The brain

See the second link below for information about chances of spread.

Since you are so concerned for your Uncle I would suggested
to him or take him to get another opinion and do not let the next Doctor knows that he had been to another Doctor before.
I would like to know how old is your uncle and how bad is he now?. Dose he have any time to spare like a week or two? so
that he Can used that time to see another Doctor!.
I WISH HIM ALL THE BEST OF EVERY THING, AND HOPE HE WILL GET OVER ALL OF HIS PROBLEMS!.

The thing is, that only the medical team can know the answer to this one. It is no use asking this on an Internet forum such as this. Simply, we have no idea.

I wish you, your Uncle and the rest of your family the very best of luck and a speedy recovery.
