Pat,
Thanks for the site and I will think about that. I was told that I should have fought before the appt. rather than trying after the fact since they know I already paid.
As for my lung, the nodule is in the lower left lobe. Was 5mm and has grown to 8mm. Right now they don't think it is mets, but because of where it is located he wants one more CT scan and perhaps a PET scan before doing surgery. It is a strange shape so he is not eliminating mets but does not think the two are related.
Playing the waiting game is hard on the mind. At least he said he probably won't just do a biopsy, but cut it out and then see what needs to be done after the pathology report.
Trying to do research now on this and it is so very different with each stage.
Thanks for your support,
Vi
