[Hope it is True]

Hello Everyone,

I went last Wednesday for a bronchospy which came back normal then I went for the needle biopsy this past Wednesday and got results today. It was normal also. The pulmonary dr said lung cancer without seeing anything but the cat scan. But my family dr says both tests came back normal and that I have scar tissue. I am happy I don't have lung cancer and thank God for everything but something is not right with me. I really feel sick and they were not looking for lung cancer when I had the cat scan. It just showed up a nodule and an enlarged lymph node so I hope they are right that it is not lung cancer. Anyone with any experience with scar tissue on the lung, please let me know. Thanks and God Bless You.

[Some test results questions]

Hi, I am Nancy and am new to the group. Just trying to find out answers to so many unanswered questions. I am 49 years old am raising a 2 1/2 year old grandson. I lost my daughter 2 years ago and i would love to raise him but things aren't looking so good. I have a lung mass but the bronchoscopy did not show anything so now i have a needle biopsy. I am scared to go thru all this but what do u do. Just yesterday I started coughing up blood. Some bright red and some dark red. I too am going to Johns Hopkins for a 2nd opinion and will do all treatment there. What can you tell me about the hospital. Sorry about your dad. Life is so short and seems so unfair. Thank you for listening and I will be waiting to hear from you about hopkins and what do u think of it.

thanks again,

Nancy

[Please someone help!!!!!!]

Hi, My name is Nancy and I live in WV. I just lost my daughter to an accidental drug overdose 2 years ago. She had a 4 month old son and I am attempting to raise him. I have had alot of health problems mentally with depression and grief. But overall I can not complain. I am 49 going to be 50 in couple of weeks. I was having some test done trying to see what was going on with back pain. After several test, the Dr. called my husband and asked him to come to his office with me the next morning. I am a smoker and have been for over 30 years. The Dr. told me that my cat scan showed a spot on my lung about the size of his thumb nail and it was on the very top of my right lung. A lymph node was also enlarged. So then I went for a bronchscopy on Wednesday which came back normal but now they say they have to do a needle biopsy because the pulmonary Dr. feels it was a false negative. How can I know what is going on. Without anything except the cat scan the pulmonary Dr. said it was cancer. My regular Dr. said he would have to see pathology report to say for sure. If anyone can shed some light for me i would really appreciate it. I have a 2 1/2 year old grandson to raise and I am scared too death. Thanks so much for listening to me. Please respond if anyone has any answers. Thanks, Nancy
