How many stages of lung cancer are there and how long before you reach the next stage?


How many stages of lung cancer are there and how long before you reach the next stage?

There are iv stages of non small cell lung cancer. (stage 3 of non small cell are divided into sub-groups) There is no way to tell how long from one stage to the next. Depends on how extensive it is and how a person responds to treatment. I didn't have the stages to go thru as I was diagnosed right off with stage iv.
If it is small cell lung cancer then there are two stages only, limited and extensive.

There are 7 stages to lung cancer (1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B & 4) and the histology does not matter. There isn鈥檛 a timetable for going from one stage to the next. How fast it spreads depends on the grade. The whole point of treatment is to stop it at the stage it is caught.

4 stages.
All cancer has 4.
Lung cancer is one of the quickest acting, if not THE quickest to reach stage 4.
4 is he worst.
Lung cancer, is also one of the worst.
It is one of the quickest acting and deadliest.

My prayers are with you.
