The private investigator never realized that nonsmokers were diagnosed with lung cancer and wants to raise awareness to help others.
Lung cancers can develop that are not related to using tobacco. But why people who have never smoked develop lung cancer remains murky.
“If you take a look at all of the patients with lung cancer about half are diagnosed with already advanced, incurable disease and that’s because often lung cancer doesn’t produce symptoms until it leaves the lungs,” Gomez said. “The first symptoms are usually respiratory so things like cough, difficulty breathing. But by the time these tumors cause symptoms they’ve usually grown enough that they’ve already spread.
“Within a few weeks, honestly, of being on that treatment my breathing improves, my coughing reduced and my symptoms were diminished,” she said. “It shrunk my tumors. It stopped the reproduction of the cells.” While there’s cancer in her hip joint and liver, she doesn’t qualify for surgery because the cancer has already metastasized. But she’s back at work, able to walk up the stairs without stopping and enjoying life.At first, she was told her lifespan would be about three years. She’s already three and a half years into treatment and knows she has another treatment she can try. But she hopes more will emerge.
