Lung Cancer Symptoms that Led to My STAGE 4 Diagnosis (Shortness of breath + Chest pain)

At 33, Megan Flanagan was an active mom of two when she was diagnosed with Stage 4 ALK Positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. After months of being told her chest pain was "just a pulled muscle" or "anxiety," a trip to the ER revealed a tumor in her lung and cancer that had spread to her spine and lymph nodes. Everything changed when biomarker testing revealed she was ALK positive because it meant Megan could bypass traditional chemotherapy for targeted therapy. Within ten days on her therapy, Megan was off the couch and playing with her daughters again. Today, she is No Evidence of Disease and dedicated to breaking the stigma of lung cancer.
