Flyman35 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 After several months of healing from a bad bought with pneumonia that marred a routine CT and then a subsequent PET we had yet another CT last week. Most things are unchanged and the pleural effusion has resolved. There is one thing left that is disconcerting. The report states there is a 6mm nodule on series 5, image 32 in the mid right lung which is too small to characterize. This is the lung that the cancer originated in. We see the onc on Tuesday to discuss what we do next. Denise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyW Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 think positive for now !! hope for best but prepare for worst in case!! prayers hugs and healing energy!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joppette Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 I agree with the others. Sometmes it's hard to not be scared. But a positive attitude goes a long way. I'm in the same place right now. They found "something" but it's too small to diagnose. That is good news meaning that if it is cancer, they caught it early. But they are watching me and I have another scan in April. praying for the best for you both. MI Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyman35 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 Thanks everybody. Here is my little update. We are going to wait and scan again on 6/10/11. it will be a fused PET/CT where they overlay the images from the new scan on top of the old scans to check for growth etc. Hurry up and wait. I hate waiting. Denise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outrider1 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Denise, I learned "hurry up and wait" will I was in the military. It annoys me as much or more now as it did then...lol. Just remember we will be awaiting with you, sending prayers and healing thoughts the whole time. Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
