According to a recent article : Lung cancer is the leading cancer killer in the United States, causing more deaths each year than breast, colon and prostate cancers combined. At the same time, people seem to view the disease differently.
"When you look at National Institutes of Health research dollars spent per diagnosis and per patient death, lung cancer is woefully below breast cancer and AIDS," he added.
"Historically, lung cancer has been stigmatized," explained Dr. Corey Langer, medical director of thoracic oncology at Fox Chase Cancer Center, in Philadelphia. "It’s viewed as a self-inflected illness and, at least partially, it is."

Or is lung cancer found in a different sort of test, and mammograms only show breast cancer?
Can people who have been diagnosed with lung cancer be cured and live?
People have survived breast cancer can the same apply for lung cancer?

My mom had breast cancer months ago and they treated it with radiation, she under went a routine chest film and they found a mass on her left upper lobe in her lung. She sees her DR on tuesday to go over the CT scan with contrast they ordered after her chest film. So what now? Could this be a result of the breast cancer? If so can it be in her brain or somewhere else? Any one can help me id appreciate it so much and please don’t hold back on the answers cause it may not be what i want to here i need to know what everyone thinks here.
My mother in-law had breast cancer in 03 she under went the surgery and chemo treatments and was cancer free, so she thought she requested a PET scan as she works at the Cleveland Clinic and knows that they are very good at finding cancer cells. Her scan came back with finding a small cell in her lung; she had breast cancer in the right breast very aggressive type and now a spot in her left Lung she does not smoke. Now we wait and see if this is a new cancer cell or if this is metastasized from her breast cancer. Everything I have read only give a 5yr mark for life she has had no symptoms of lung cancer and this was very unexpected to find. Does anyone have and information on this type of cancer?
I am a 52 year ol;d female. Ten years ago I was diagnosed with lobular carcinoma of the breast (in-situ) and had bilateral mastectomies. My mother died of the same type of breast cancer when she was 47. I now have squamous cell lung cancer on the same side as the breast. Could there be a correlation?
I lived in a college freshman dorm in 1995 and there were 36 girls on my floor (about 6 floors in the whole building). I have lost touch with most of them, but of those that I still keep in contact with, 4 have developed cancer. I am wondering if this qualifies as out of the ordinary, because it seems so to me! I have started wondering if there was some kind of hazardous material we were all exposed to in the dorm. The very next year the school demolished the building and rebuilt it, to modernize it. If it contained lead paint or asbestos, could either of these have contributed to the cancers? One woman developed brain tumors at age 22 and died at age 31. Another developed breast cancer at age 29 and she also died at age 31. The third developed eye cancer this year at age 32, lost that eye, and is stable. And the last one developed Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma this year at age 32, had chemo and radiation, and is stable. This is a grim list I know. Is it possible that this is just coincidence? It seems so unlikely for such a small group of young adults to have 4 severe cancers (that I know of). Any ideas why?
