Cheryl,
What your oncologist says sounds like good news to me--I'd take that news as being correct. If they are insignificant spots, someone has deemed them "insignificant". Nevertheless, I know what a report of spots on the lung would do to me, too. I do think a lot of folks have them, and they don't mean anything.
The thing is, doctors have to talk like nothing is certain, which of course it isn't, but darn it . . . I hate that too.
99.9% chance of insignificance . . .
Rest easy, friend.
