Hi, I met my mom's onco today to get his opinion on the 4 lung nodules (7mm, 4mm, 2mm, 2mm). all other tests are normal inc. CEA 1.1.
He told me that he cannot actually say if these are met because its too small, also PET scan may not have an accurate result. so he just correlate the history and other tests of my mom to his opinion. he told me that since my mom's dx is stage 1 (rectal), the probability of recurrence and metastasis is 5-10%. so what he recommend is to have another scan after 4months which is on december.
My question is, do i need to have a 2nd opinion or we will just follow his reco?
thank you.
