My wife had a ct yesterday and the doctor called this morning and said that her lung looks great but they now see 3 spots in her liver and a spot on her bone in her back....has anyone had this happen and not been sclc? Her last chemo was last year in July...I'm hoping and praying that this could just be something else...if it is sclc again I hope that they can treat it and stop it! Any thoughts and experiences with this would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello, I am glad your wife shows no sclc in the lungs. As far as the other spots I am not familiar with sclc, as I had nsclc and don't know what the other spots could be. I visit the Inspire lung cancer web site, and there are survivors there that might be able to help with your question. I am praying that its just inflammation and it will go away. I wish you and your wife well. Lori

    You may google it and it will come up. Type in Inspire and then go to the site. There are many health topics to choose from. I know that I like to go there because it has all the stages of lung cancer and small cell lung cancer. Lots of survivors with experience strength and hope. Lori

    I will also be praying that everything comes back negative and its just the ebb and flow of life and aging, as we all get different spots on the outside of our body, so why whould'nt we get them on the inside. I pray for you and your wife. Lori

    Thank you Karen! I called for her results yesterday and the nurse said that the doctor was going over the scans with the radiologist and wants to see us on this Friday instead of next Wednesday so I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not!

    Chad I'm so sorry for the results. Now it worked once for the lungs and its not back in the lungs, so it should work again for the other spots. I will have you and your wife in my prayers. Lori
