Communities›In Treatment For Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer›Hello, my name is Sheri. I was diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer METEXON skipping 14 on November 17 last year 2025. I am doing very well and thankful I had to lesions on my brain, which were small and 3 1/2 inch tumor in my lungs. However, I have been doing Trabecta and I feel very lucky to say that I have had two MRIs and the lesions in my brain and the tumor in my lungs have turned into granules. So so far so good. I saw this app on TV and would like to learn more on handling the symptoms of this drug such as edema, etc. etc. it’s very nice to meet you all and happy to be part of this community.

Hi Sheri, I have Stage IV nsclc-ALK diagnosed April 2019. I’ve been on Allectinib and have had brain radiation. My quality of life has been good with headaches, brain fog, fatigue, diarrhea and constipation being my most common issues. I suggest setting your morning alarm to some daily affirmation. I have a song “It’s a great day to be alive”. Find people that you can be honest with. Everyone asks how you are doing some you can say “I’m angry or scared. Stress is not about how much you are given but how much you can put it down. All the Best
