I am over from the breast cancer board. I have a friend recently diagnosed with bronchial alveolar lung cancer in both lungs. She has been int hospital ICU with pneumonia. she is on hi flow nasal cannula. She cannot seem to be getting rid of it. Somebody also said when you have a biopsy it can spread cells within the lung. She is currently getting chemo every three weeks. I have no idea what to think, is this common? what are the implications when it is in both lungs?????
