1 :
there are many variables that come into play. ie age of patient, how advanced it is, what type cancer it is.....lots of things.
2 :
The out look for people with lung cancer is not generally good. It isn't possible to give any real estimate of how serious the problem is without knowing a lot more about the patient than their initial diagnosis. The only way to know for certain what the likely outcome would be is to have a serious talk with the doctors.
3 :
Sadly, lung cancer is the malignancy with the highest death rate in the United States: 87% of male patients die within 5 years of diagnosis, 83% of females die within that time frame. For more information on lung cancer prevalence and survival rates go to the following link: http://seer.cancer.gov/csr/1975_2003/results_merged/topic_survival.pdf
4 :
lots of variables here. type,stage, placement, cause. lung cancer can be beat. my bro and dad are living proof.
5 :
It depends on if it is small cell lung cancer or non-small cell lung cancer, and how far it has spread at time of treatment. It also depends where you are having treatments. Australia has a lower mortality rate from lung cancer than the US, 32% lower for men and 48% lower for women!
6 :
It is very hard to say. The most important factors are early detection and to maintain the medicatiom perscripted. Lung cancer is very difficult to detect early because it has no symptoms but I'm not saying you need to get a CT scan every month. If you do get any symptoms such as: bloody spit, change of cough pattern, pain in lungs, you are advised to see a doctor straight away as when metastasized, survival rates are very low.
7 :
First they will take a bi opsy and go from there ...... Chemo therapy first then a trans plant. The best place in the world if the Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minn.. I have been there four times and I trust them with my heart and soul... Just go to Mayoclinic.com and check them out.. Good luck Grant in Pennsylvania

That person should go find a doctor immediately if you havn't already. Get 1,2,3 opinions. Earlier detection the better.
2 :
My understanding is that it kinda cures itself... meaning it won't be a problem one "lives" with for very long. Early detection can make modern treatment possible, but after a point, you're pretty much done. Being a smoker, I imagine I'll find out soon enough.
3 :
if its early + localized to one lobe or one lung, it may be managed surgically and then radio or chemo therapy, but its not that simple, there si check list to be excluded for the tumor to be operable however, the vast majority of patients present with already advanced disease and this is one of the nastiest cancer that doctor cannot do much to
4 :
Lung cancer treatment could be in a form of chemotheraphy, radiography, and surgery or combined. However it does not offer complete cure. If detected early, your chance of having good result is high but a relapse can be expected to happen in the future. Some treatment just offer palliation or just a temporary relief. There are new chemotherapeutic drugs combination available this days which are believed to give better results in lung cancer treatment. If you are a smoker: Stop right now as it is one way of helping yourself with this form of cancer though it is not guaranteed due to the fact that all smokers do not get lung cancer and some lung cancer patients are not smokers. Anyway keep away from smoking!♥

My husband was treated with radiation chemo gamma knife procedure and a drug called tarceva. Hope this helps

I have always believed that the mainstream medical industry is not interested in finding a cure for cancer because it makes too much profit with its present barbarous methods. Eventually, I came across a detailed report which agreed with my findings, and I have included it in my web page at http://dgwa1.fortunecity.com/body/cancer.html By reading this report, you will also convince yourself that it is best to ignore the mainstream cancer industry, and seek alternative cures. Also you should bear in mind that the medical industry will do anything to protect its profitable position, including disparaging alternative healers or even creating bogus court cases. I believe that cancer is a whole body thing, which in 80 percent of cases manifests itself by producing symptoms in the weaker parts of the body, and therefore appearing localised. It is this treatment of symptoms instead of cause which creates the profitable, yet non-successful approach of mainstream medicine. Some cures are listed on the web page too. It is therefore obvious that a holistic approach is required, based on cleansing, diet, exercise and debugging. CLEANSING The best way of cleansing is to fast. http://www.phifoundation.org/menses.html http://www.healthy.net/scr/article.asp?ID=1996 but if a patient is too weak for that, or does not fancy the idea, then alternative cleanses are available.

Drinks should be clean water or freshly squeezed orange juice. Many researchers promote the benefits of vitamin B17 as a healer. this can be found in the following foods: Apple seeds, alfalfa sprouts, apricot kernels, bamboo shoots, barley, beet tops, bitter almond, blackberries, boysenberries, brewer’s yeast, brown rice, buckwheat, cashews, cherry kernels, cranberries, currants, fava beans, flax seeds, garbanzo beans, gooseberries, huckleberries, lentils, lima beans, linseed meat, loganberries, macadamia nuts, millet, millet seed, peach kernels, pecans, plum kernels, quince, raspberries, sorghum cane syrup, spinach, sprouts (alfalfa, lentil, mung bean, buckwheat, garbanzo), strawberries, walnuts, watercress, yams. A commercial preparation of B17 is available called Laetrile. EXERCISE Exercise should be sufficient to create a sweat, but not sufficient to make you gasp for breath or feel over-tired. About one hours exercise every day is best. DEBUGGING There are various theories about how bugs create cancer.
