Mally Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 well ive had my 12 month post op ct scan results today and from the previous scan 6 months ago i have a lymph node that has grown a little bit so oncologist said that because i had the previous scan on the last day of my chemo that it could be just because of that but wants me to have a biopsy to see exactly why next week and said i may be able to have immunatherepy treatment if needed.anyone had this situation ?

BridgetO Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Sorry to hear about your concerns and that you're going to have to have a biopsy, Mally. I'll keep my fingers crossed that your lymph node is just being odd and that all is well. When I had surgery for my "other" (non-lung) cancer, I had 27 nodes removed because they looked weird (to both the surgeon and the pathologists) but it turned out that only 1 0r 2 were malignant and the others were just odd. Let's hear it for odd but benign lymph nodes! Bridget O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judy M. Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Mally Not a lymph node, but adrenal gland. Had a nodule that had been sitting there doing nothing since first CT a couple of years ago. Now it's grown some and lit up on PET. I'm almost 5 months out from chemo. Had biopsy on it Monday. Awaiting results. Oncologist is saying the same-maybe immunotherapy. Hope your eventual biopsy is all good. Judy M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridgetO Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Judy, I'm crossing my fingers for your adrenal gland too. I hope it's just odd! Bridget O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
