I had my first post CT Scan 10 days ago. Today I spoke with the nurse and she said the test only showed a small stable nodule on my left lung. I said "doesn't the word stable imply that it was seen there before?" She replied that would be the case. I said I was never advised by anyone prior to that of the nodule. My wife and I would surely remember that! I have an appointment with my Oncologist on the 26th. In the meantime, should I be worried? I will be, but should I be???

Thanks!!
