I have been diagnosed  with stage 4 lung cancer that has spread to my neck bones.  I've undergone 3 chemo sessions in 3 months and have had radiation to my neck.  I have another chemo session tomorrow after having a week off.  Has anyone else had similar sessions? Is it possible to survive stage 4 lung cancer and if so, for how long?  My doctor gives me a year and so far my tumor has diminished is size as has the surrounding cancer.  I'm on Carboplatin, Avastin, Taxotere in addition to having emphysema.
