Well, a lot has changed in two weeks. I ended up taking my husband to the ER on Jan 4, Doctor ordered a CT scan where it showed spreading to hubby's spine and to the rest of his ribs, Pleural effusion has got larger, and a new mass in his lower part of his right lung. So he was changed to stage 4 non-small cell lung cancer. Doctor done a bone scan and conformed the spread.
So doctors and my husband made the choice that since his lung function was so poor, and the cancer was making him so weak, that he will not be getting any treatments. It became a issue of having a better quality life.
So the doctors sent us home with an hospice referral.
