From Lisa Fayed, your Guide to Cancer
When you hear of someone having lung cancer, it's easy to think it was caused by smoking. Someimes, however, smoking isn't the culprit. In this newsletter, I share with you information about how non-smokers can develop lung cancer. In this newsletter, I bring you information from UpToDate -- a resource that both patients and doctors use to gain reliable medical information. UpToDate allows you to research the same information your doctor uses, making you a more proactive, prepared patient.

Lung Cancer in Never Smokers
UpToDate is a great resource because the information is written by physicians for fellow physicians and patients. The information is current and reliable -- two qualities that can help you make better decisions about your healthcare. In this UptoDate article, non-smokers can see how they may be at risk for lung cancer and what they can do to minimize it.
