Patient Advocate (1000+ posts) Joined: Aug 2003 Posts: 1,627 | Hey Everyone, I had my spiral CT of my chest done today and will get the results tomorrow. If the small spot is indeed radiation scarring, then I'll have my surgery on Sept. 25th at John Hopkins. If the spot is cancer, then they will treat that first and see what happens. So anxious tonight, as you can see by the 3:08am posting! Keeping you all in my thoughts, Minnie
