Suggest Treatment For Shortness Of Breath And Weight Loss While Having Lung Cancer
My sister-in-law has been diagnosed with lung cancer. She is currently on oxygen constantly, having trouble walking because she is out of breath, and losing weight. She sees a doctor for new protocols about every two weeks. Is she about at the end of life? Should we be monitoring every detail now because she is close to death? Just trying to prepare ourselves for the inevitable signs so that we know.
