Hello Gerald,

I have just joined the site and have a pressing question concerning my Mother and a spot on her lung that a CT scan detected.  Since her last CT scan 3 months ago, the spot has grown from 7mm to 11mm (she just had another CT scan yesterday).

If you would be willing to view some of my questions as well as read a brief discription of her previous battles with cancer (both breast and carcinosarcoma) please reply back to me.

I truly do appreciate ANY feedback and insight you may be willing to provide as I am deeply concerned for my Moms health.

Thank you so much,

Blythe

Diagnosised with Stage Ia No Mo. vats surgery lobectomy lower right lobe.  They said no chemo, is this standard for this type? I am worried that maybe some cancer cells escaped into blood or something escaped from biopsy? what is your opinion?
