I'll be heading in tomorrow for my three year follow up scan. My nodule is part solid, which means it needs to be followed longer given increased risk. As always, I'm extremely nervous. Good luck to everyone out there.
I need some help/advice... When i was in the hospital for multiple PE's last June they found two nodules 1 in each lung. I went in for a follow up CT yesterday now that the PE's are all gone and they called me today telling me i have a 13mm granuloma in my right upper lobe. 1.) what the heck does that mean!? everything says 8 and smaller are the ones that are least likely to be Cancer so what does 13mm mean? 2.) They couldnt tell me anything about the one in my left lobe that we have been watching for the last 3 CT's are they trying to tell me that it magically disappeared?.. i dont know who to ask or what questions to ask.. .anyone?... Any
It's been about 15 months for me and I'm now going back for my second follow up scan tomorrow. I hope everyone is doing well here. I'm obviously very nervous for tomorrow and am hoping for no more nodules and a stable/smaller nodule that we've been monitoring.
There used to be so many people on this thread but it appears to have dried up. I wish some of those who posted earlier would come back and tell us their outcomes because they usually are comforting! And even those who get news of a carcinoma tell us much about what patients face when told they have pulmonary nodules.
From this thread, I have learned that nearly everyone has anxiety as a result of receiving news they have nodules and the waiting for the next CT is the worst.
I am a non-smoker with multiple nodules, the largest being a 1.5 cm nodule with some ground glass and irregular margins who was treated for non-invasive BC last year. It's going to be a long three months....
I'm new here, I just had a ct scan on my abdomin and they saw a 3mm calcified nodule in my lower left lung. They also found a 5mm non calcified nodule in my lower right lung. I'm reading a lot and see that it is a moderate risk for cancer is this true?
I am 31 .I am having a cough from long times.Lastday i did CT scan and got 3mm calcified nodule in right lower lube.And also i am having back pain,neck pain,solder pain and some times also bone pain.so i am very scared for thing .
Can you please any one help me on the same ?
