I finally have a new pulmonoligist and she's wonderful. Knows her stuff. After our initial first visit with me she wanted to do another CT Scan of my chest. She thought she saw something. We did the CT Scan and she sent me a message that she wants to see me cause she saw something on my lymp nodes and she wants to discuss with me of doing further testing. She said the lymp nodes didn't grow. They look the same, so I'm nervous about what she saw. Anyone know anything?

Wait and see what she says.
For what's it worth I've had a CTScan 'spot' on my liver they have been re-investigating for the last 15 years.
I had to have several scans over time, but they have not grown any in the 3 years since first found.
It is always scary when the dr "wants to see us" and so often it is nothing to be worried about.
even when I know I shouldn't worry, i do. so i hope you have an appointment soon.
my prayers are with you (((HUGS)))))
