Hi, I'm a long-time member of the Colon Cancer forum. A good friend of mine just called me last night and told me that she has Stage IV Lung Cancer. She just found this out on Tuesday, she woke up Saturday morning with a lump on the outside of her neck, then made a Dr appointment and got the bad news.

Right now, we don't have any details as to what specifically she has, I hope to know more in the next few days. Can anyone recommend a "great" Cancer Center for Lung Cancer near Charlotte NC or a great oncologist. I know that "great" is subjective to people's experiences but any info would help. You can either post here or email me via this site. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks in advance

    Please post this request on the Inspire web site at the lung cancer section.  Lots of great information there and a lot of traffic.  Lori

    Yes thats it.  The lung cancer section is filled with stage IV survivors and will have the best information.  I post here and there as I had anal and lung 2 different primaries.

    Thank you everyone

    My friend is hooked up with a team from Vevine in NC. I don't have all of the details right now but the advice I got here helped her to find info on the other website. It's greatly appreciated by myself and by here.
    We shall see what happens.

    Thank you all so much.
