How long can you live with stage 4 small cell lung cancer?

This gives me hope I’ve had stage 4 small cell lung cancer for a year and half 4 different types of chemo and immunotherapy. One session of radiation and now I’m on chemotherapy again. It’s all keeping it at bay but does keep growing

diagnosed 1 year ago, then hurricane helene, treatment postponed for several weeks due to damage from the storm. 7 weeks of radiation, 3 rounds of chemo, now on immunotherapy, stage 3a as of last months not spread outside lung. Cat scan in October. it's a shadow always over me.

What an incredible journey - living with stage 4 small cell lung cancer for over 8 years shows remarkable strength and resilience. Every person's experience with cancer is unique, and survival can vary greatly based on many individual factors that only medical teams can fully assess. The cancer community here understands the uncertainty that comes with advanced diagnoses, and many members find value in sharing their experiences and supporting each other through treatment decisions and daily challenges.
