          Thanks for your answer , Cindy. Sorry for your mom. Doctors don't want to talk , they just told we can't be sure what are these nodules. Of course thanks for the MM link . According to you , this could help making any molecular test to look what bad pathway is involved ? I knew that MM recognize different genetic disruptions than the cutaneous form.Best wishes.

            First of all thanks for answering me . This was my first Ct . I know that you can get nodules in a healthy person, unfortunately it's another story when you are diagnosed with a Mucosal Melanoma ( any stage , I read ).What is more corncerning is that there are SEVERAL  micronodules , and they are located at the base of BOTH the lungs . I suspect that this could be a criteria  , specially with the location, the lung base. Again thanks..
