Guest hearrean Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Back on the 15th when I initially introduced myself in the "Introduce Yourself" section, I had indicated that the (2) suspicious masses found in my last CT scan were 20 X 19 X 18 mm and 33 X 24 X 24 mm. Based upon everyones's experience with all of this, are these (2) areas/nodules considered large? FYI: As I've posted in another thread, I've already had a PET, MRI/Brain Scan & PFT at MD Anderson and I'm awaiting those results & I'll be having the needle biopsy on Monday. After the results of that test are in, I guess I'll be meeting with my MD Anderson Doc for the diagnosis. But I was just wondering if these (2) masses are considered large be everyone's standards & experiences? Thanks, Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather_T Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Ken, My tumor was around 6 x 7 x 5.5 cm. That was a lot larger than yours so I would not say yours were considered large tumors but I am not a doctor. You may be able to run it by Dr. West at onctalk.com he is our resident Onc. doctor. Good luck with all the results of your scans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connie B Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 My tumor was 3.5 cm the size of an egg. I have 3 nodules right now in my right lung that range from 4mm to 8mm. 4mm is the size of the moon on your finger. mm are small in size.

Ken, go back to each of those previous posts, click the "Edit" button, scroll down and put a check mark next to "Attach signature," then click "Submit." That will do it for each of those messages. For your new messages, that block will be checked automatically if you have "Always attach my signature" marked "Yes" below your "My Profile" input window. And welcome to the group!

Guest hearrean Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 One last question that I don't see in the FAQ's. In my signature, how do I change the font size to make it smaller like a lot of those I see? Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelley (MLC) Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 To change the font size.... At the beginning of your signature type this: shelley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hearrean Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I must be doing something wrong. When I type , that's what shows up in my signature.... Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recce101 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 "hearrean" I must be doing something wrong. When I type , that's what shows up in my signature.... At the very end of your profile text you need to close the size tag with . Then the size will actually take effect and the 2 tags will disappear. Your profile will also accept the other formatting tags you see at the top of the "Post a reply" window I'm using right now -- for bold, italic, colors, etc. Aloha, Ned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
