How can I prepare to talk to my doctor about non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and KRAS G12C?

Sometimes it’s challenging to discuss all of your questions and concerns in one doctor visit. Here are some considerations to help organize your thoughts*

Before your appointment:
  • Write down things you want to discuss. Put the most important topics at the top so you get to them first
  • Think about bringing a friend or loved one with you, or have them present if you are doing a video call
  • Here are some topics that may be helpful to ask your doctor about:
    • What is my biomarker status?
    • Why am I being put on treatment?
    • How does the treatment work?
    • What should I expect from treatment?
During your appointment:
  • You may want to ask about your biomarker status
    • If you don’t know whether or not you’ve had a biomarker test, talk to your doctor
    • If you have had a biomarker test, ask your doctor for the results
    • You may want to keep those results somewhere safe for future appointments. They could be helpful at visits when you talk about treatment
After your appointment:
  • If you change doctors, consider sharing the results of your biomarker test with your new doctor
  • Think about organizing information on biomarker testing and treatment in an easy-to-access location
