Thank you for the encouragement I know I need to just chill and do it and I will its just heavy on my brain . The surgical pulmonologist explained to me this nodule will be difficult to get to its in the center of the right lower lobe doctor explained he will follow the main airway as far as he can then he will need to punch thru lung material for the last part the radiology notes state high risk for malignancy along with this I am also dealing with autoimmune things thank you for encouraging me to get this done hope and pray you are doing good at this time also .

It’s not fun to look forward to but it has to be done.
Yours will be early stage too, better treatment options.
I had the option to have surgical removal and radiation. In my case success rate was the same. I chose radiation.
As long as you trust your doctors, you will be fine.
I would appreciate if you can keep us up to date!
