nikkala Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Hi Laurene, I'm right there with ya girl. Have been watching multiple nodules for 1 1/2 yrs now. Also lost my mom at 41 to LC and two grandparents to LC. I know just how nerve wracking it is. I wish I could say something to help you. Just know you are not alone.

joanie55 Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Hi Laurene, You might want to check out our Nodule section. I think there are a lot of folks here with similar concerns. Good luck. Joan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don M Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Hi Laurene: I hope you stay out of the cancer club. If I did not have any growth in 3 years, I would be very encouraged. Don M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connie B Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Laurene, In the General Forum at the top of the page you will see a Thread (DO YOU HAVE NODULES) You might want to join in on that thread of messages. This way we keep all the Nodule people together. I know you had posted to the Doc's in Ask the Experts and You and I have chatted about your nodules. I encourage you to join the NODULE GROUP. The GOOD NEWS IS, YOU DON'T HAVE LUNG CANCER!!! As of today, you only have NODULES!! That's a GOOD THING!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jensunflower Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 It's the guinea pig stage, lol, and it is going to last awhile, I am afraid! I am new to this as well, so I do not have much insight, but I wish you the best. There is great support and answers here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
