Never smoked before but was diagnosed with lung cancer a few weeks prior. I definitely feel it too, my energy levels are complete crap, i have much harder time focussing and tasks which were super easy seem difficult now. So, knowing im fucked anyways, what are some things i can do to extend my very shitty prognosis?

Have they said what stage yet? The actual type and severity makes a huge difference in outcomes so that is something you need to discuss with a serious specialist. I do hope things somehow someway go good for you.

The last stage. My last doctor, and i quote said "you're going to die, we have no idea what this thing is going to do to you or how long you have left. At this point do all the exercise you can, because later on you wont be able to". Brutal way of saying it, but still. I also definitely notice a severe decline in cognitive function, even light reading can make me light headed now

Ok, I was hoping for a different answer. Honestly, what you should do now is a really personal answer that depends on you and what's important to you in your life. Condolences, I survived cancer but it was nowhere near stage 4 likes yours but took over 5 years of being sick to get diagnosed.
