Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 38 | I had my third post-TX PET/CT on 20 Aug. Was chest PET Negative but had some ringing around my tounge due to an aphthous ulcer (painful). That PET was followed up by Head & Neck MRI and Physical of Head and Neck and then followed by a Chest CT on 18th of Sept.
The Chest CT shows three nodules, a 9MM top of right, 3 to 4 MM bottom of right and a 3to 4MM top of left. I had three 3-4MM spots back on my first two PET/CTs that have cleared. Pulmonologist ordered another PET/CT for the 29th of Sept. He wants to biopsy one of my three nodules. Largest is 9MM but is the most difficult to biopsy.
Anyone have lung nodule issues? RAD/ONC isn't concerned, Pulmonology is concerned.
