hi, first, what type of sclc (limited or extensive) , what chemo's, I am a sclc survivor(limited), she is doing the right thing to go to a major hospital for a second opinion. I had the radiation also and it did nothing for my tumor. There is much advancement in cancer research so getting the second opinion is critical. I had cisplatnum and etopicide(vp-16) initially and had problems with it and was changed to carboplatnum, etopicide and taxol. It made the tumor shrink. I hope this helps some and I will keep you and your friend in my prayers and offer any of my past expericences to you. God bless, mike0

I think hers is extensive, but still contained to the lung. Nothing in the brain or anything. I know she got sick on the chemo had some type of reaction so they stopped that. I am trying to keep her hopeful and somedays this is not an easy task. I am thankful for your prayers for her and refuse to give up hope for her...Thankshandle said:hi, first, what type of sclc (limited or extensive) , what chemo's, I am a sclc survivor(limited), she is doing the right thing to go to a major hospital for a second opinion.
