Was diagnosed with extensive small cell lung cancer in the end of May and so far I feel better than before the diagnosis, in spite of 5 cycles of chemo (no major side effects). My doctor mentioned radiotherapy to prevent brain tumors, I feel a bit uneasy about it and would be grateful if somebody could share her/his experience.
