@faith3981, I find it unlikely that MyChart gets the results before your doctors. My experience indicates you can take a deep breath. In this world, no news is good news.

My Oncologist's nurse navigator called me 2 hours after I returned home from my CAT scan to tell me that a PET scan was ordered because a nodule had grown 30% in three months. Turned out to be benign. But 2 hours!

My initial diagnosis was in 2018 at stage 2b. My EGFR Exon 19 mutation metastasized to my brain in 2020. I had a small recurrence in 2024, easily removed with radiation. Otherwise, I'm still good. I've been tested every 3 months since December 2020, so I've been in this world a long time.

I wish you all the best! Let us know what your doctors tell you.

Hi Matthew,
Thank you for your support!
I have a telehealth appointment with my thoracic surgeon tomorrow and will know more about the next steps.
