Hi. keep your fingers crossed and be sure to get a copy of the biopsy report.

"I just got a middle biopsy"
Do you mean a needle biopsy?

They thought at first it was a fluid filled cyst and corrected it with the cat scan

Hi, at this point it's all about probabilities and lymphoma is the least likely cause.

If you reply, I'll answer in more detail.
