Greetings warriors;
I recently had cat scan on my chest/abdomen to figure out some stomach issues I have been having. They did not find any issues but did see a 4MM nodule in my left lung. I have been NED since last Spring and my last PET in January did not show this nodule. I emailed my onco about this as he did not order the test and would not have seen it, but what is normally done in a situation like this?
Thanks,
Ted

I had something similar and we watched it over a few scans. In my case they kept growing but I had multiples appear which is more concerning. A single small nodule could easily be related to something else like a chest infection and may be gone at the next scan

Hi Ted,
I’ve been on Nivo since January and my last CT scan showed enlarged lymph nodes in my chest and several lug nodules. I’ve to have an Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) on Tuesday where they put a camera down your windpipe and take samples. This should determine whether it’s inflammation caused by the treatment or whether the melanoma has spread. Hope yours turned out to be ok.
Zelda
