 <description>&lt;p&gt;I am not sure that you got the information right, ma&#039;am, when you listened to the doctors.  Or maybe I am misreading what you have written.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I would be surprised to learn that only 2% of discovered cancers are of undetermined origin, as I read in these boards every day of people who have cancer but are not sure of the primary.  I would be even more surprised to find that of that 2%, if such is the case, the majority of them end up being lung or pancreatic cancers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am presuming a bit here, as I am not a medical professional or a cancer expert.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In any event, your husband and his family are in my thoughts.  Please consider this site a place to come with your concerns and even your rants and rages, along with any positive news you get.  We are here for you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As you gather more information, perhaps there will be members who can answer your more specific questions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Take care,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Joe&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;p&gt;Sept 28th my husband was diagnosed with cancer. It has been a confusing ride so far. We, well he started chemo last week. We go again this week and a break next week. Right now they are treating him for Lung/pancreas cancer. He falls into a 2% category of undetermined origin. Of that 2% we were told that 60% of that group is almost always lung or pancreas cancer. So i am praying that we are treating the right thing, so we can get this controlled. Stop the spreading of this. I would love to talk to anyone but especially those who have experianced this type of diagnoses.&lt;br /&gt;
He started out having chest pain and now has lots of random pain everywhere.&lt;/p&gt;
