Agreed, early-stage detection makes a massive difference in survival. Getting a second opinion from an experienced oncologist is always highly recommended.
I was researching this because a family friend was diagnosed. It seems survival rates vary wildly depending on whether it's small cell or non-small cell lung cancer, and if it was caught early. Some people live for many years with modern targeted therapies, while others face a faster progression.
My uncle had severe breathing complications and pleural effusion during his lung cancer treatment. You must be extremely cautious and have a doctor evaluate any sudden cough, fever, or breathlessness immediately, as things can change quickly.
For lung health, simple breathing exercises in fresh air can provide some comfort, and warm ginger tea helps with chest congestion. However, cancer is a serious disease that requires proper hospital treatment, so please follow the oncologist's advice strictly.
