How lond do you have after being diagnosed with lung cancer?


grandmother was just diagnosed

Generalizations can be made, but no certain answer can be given. I have heard of cases in which the person died very shortly upon learning of the cancer. I have heard of contrasting cases in which the cancer was cured, by medicine or miracle. I suggest that you not concern yourself with such specifics. Deal with the present and plan for the future as best you can. Part of life is the unpredictable. Another part of life is not giving up; not giving up hope. Be encouraged and don't give up. No one can predict, and don't let anyone take away your hope.
It is different for everyone. and depends on how early or late they found it.

sorry
The time left depends on the stage of the cancer, type of cancer, if it has spread or metastasized. If caught soon enough the cancerous area can be removed. Talk to the oncologist for the complete answer
Is she being treated? The doctor would be the one to ask about that. Some people do die, but I read on here that a lady said she knew of people surviving.

Just remember that God didn't put an expiration date on any of us.
OK this is not nice to ask how old she is, but everybody is different about lung cancer well you probabl will have 6 months to a year unless you are a fighter for your life. God Bless and I will have a prayer for your grandma.
It depends on the stage and how much fight the person has in them. My father got diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and lived three years. You never know, there are always miracle cases, and there are people that will exceed what the doctors say.
It depends on the type, what stage it's in (1,2,3,4) and whether she can tolerate chemo, surgery or radiation. (or all three)
My last boss was diagnosed and died 18 mnths later (she smoked, A LOT) and had had an x-ray 19 mnths earlier that didn't show anything.
My mother-in-law has had (breast) cancer twice and she's fine 10 yrs later..(no sign of cancer now)
So it all depends on her and her Dr's....

I'm sorry she's ill... I hope she does Ok with her meds/surgery, whatever she decides to do.
