Again, I turn to the great folks here for advice and support. Looks like "whack a mole" continues for me !!!!
Did a Ct today and 2 lung nodules were noticed to have increased in size over 12 months the first from 3mm to 5mm , the other from 5mm to 7mm referred to as a "cavitary nodule "
Now what...will meet with my onco in 2 weeks and want to go to the appointment prepared. Forbackground I completed 7 rounds of folfiri for my liver met in Jan 2015 , and did 10 rounds of folfox finishing in July 2013. I really do not want to do any more chemo.....
Is a biopsy needed, or should these damn things be removed no matter ?
Is a surgical solution possible ? What type of surgery ? VATS ? How difficult is it compared to a LAR or liver resection ?
What about RFA ? Is this possible....is it readily available ? My care is at UCSF, but Stanford is only 15 miles from where I live .
What about SBRT ?
I sure would appreciate some guidance from the trenches.
OH, lastly my prostate cancer has gotten active again, got my first met to my ribs....so it looks like I am fighting 2 cancers.....daily double...now time to have a few drinks.
Thanks to you all....this board and all of its people are a true gift.
