Skp...

I had my CT Scan in Sept. I sent for my medical records for that day to see what it said...There are numerous tiny pulmonary nodules which are unchanged. ( I guess I had them before) The report goes on about mild diffuse wall thickening of the bronchiloes with areas where the small peripheral bronchi nodules appear opacified. No enlarging lesion is identified...no pleural effusion is evident.

When my Surgeon was reading the report to himself he said, everything is fine see you in 6 months. Now if I had seen the report while I was there I would have questioned everything, but seeing he didn't see anything alarming he sent me on my way.

I didn't have the PET Scan my Surgeon said no to them. The scans I have are CT Scan with and without contrast.

I hope this helps it might be nothing see what happens. I know when I read mine I flaked out for a few minutes, but then I thought I have one of the best Surgeons at a Cancer Center and if he's not alarmed why should I be. I would ask for a CT Scan with and without contrast.

Take care,
Connie
