There are no hard and fast rules here. I suspect their concern is that it appeared within the last 6 months and already achieved a size of 4.5mm. That makes it relatively fast growing. They are being cautious. This could still turn out to be something caused by something environmental but better to be safe. If this was my body, I would want the three month CT.

Thank you for your reply and yes I agree considering the 8mm took years to get there 4.5mm in 6 months is definitely fast growing..hoping of course its environmental, or inflammation. I now have a follow up with the thoracic surgeon as the 8mm cannot be biopsy due to location and 6 months ago were wanting to do surgery on the 'maybe' it is but I was definitely not leaning that way..we will see what he has to say now..thank you again
