Lung nodule... Reassuring results but still anxious

Definitely will continue monitoring. As far as the oncologist, I do not see how they could be helpful in this situation. Without biopsy, there is just speculation on the definite diagnosis. They are not pulmonologists/radiologists and cannot interpret CT results. Unless pulmonologist refers to surgery for biopsy, following up with oncology is not indicated.

Sure. I get that. My perspective is that the guys with the sometimes
very complicated responsibility in their lap have developed an Exceptional eye for cancer. ♋️

FWIW I procured both radiology-based oncologist and a chemical one after surgery where surgeon is confident “we Got It all”. They see my follow up and consult with my Pulmonologist. I just don’t want to go looking for that relationship only when I need it

But I’m a risk avoidance planner by vocation. 🙂
