First of all I would like to say I have the utmost respect to all fighting this disease I pray everyday so they you all continue to fight my story so far started 5 months ago when I developed a cough I still have the cough today I went to docs about 6 weeks ago and xray was good still did not feel right they did a CT scan which showed a 7 mm pleural based nodule in left upper lung told to rescan in 3 months symptoms of cough debilitating fatigue weight loss no real appetite persisted so I had another scan on Monday only 5 weeks later this scan showed the nodule is more like scar tissue and not to be followed anymore which was great but a new branching of a groundglass ggo that is 3cm is in my right lower lobe ???? I still have all the symptoms feel that something is terribly wrong Doctor says it's infection and I don't think so I have an appt at u of Penn tomorrow
