I had my biopsy today and, as suspected, it was positive for carcinoma. They will get the final reading by the end of the week. I also had a chest CT. I somewhat question the CT since I will probably need a PET scan sometime. The doctor will look at the scans and the biopsy report and give his opinion on what to do next.
