I went in for my 5 year post chemo visit to find that there were some concerning findings on my most recent CT scan. I went from feeling on top of the world to worrying constantly. I have a 1.5 cm nodule on my lung with spiculated margin and some cavitation. My "benign" adrenal tumour is now 3.8 cm big (up from 2.5) and I have small lesions on my thyroid. It's all very confusing though, the oncologist sent me to the thoracic surgeon who seems relaxed and says I can wait a month for my PET scan and possible biopsy (I am scheduled to fly back home to Canada for a month). He sends me to the Surgeon for the Adrenal tumour - that is next week. I am stressed and calm all at the same time.
The thoracic guy seems concerned but says that the lung thingy is small and slow growing so there is no rush. I know that this is nothing compared to what other forum members have gone through but I value your opinions.
Should I be cancelling my trip home and getting the PET scan now? The thoracic guys says I can't fly for quiet a while after a biopsy.
