How does lung cancer affects your other organs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may or may not: When early, lung cancer does not affect other organs. But in more advanced cases it tends to spread to multiple organs like Bones, Liver and often to the brain, causing organ dysfunction after sometime of spread.
