Thank you. Relieved and anxious at the same time is exactly my feeling. One begins to wonder if continued testing is just an abundance of caution or if I’m not made aware of the full story.

hi @wtr - congrats on your good report! so there's an "algorithm" that the docs use to track lung nodules. if your nodules don't grow after 2-5 years (depending on some other criteria), then I think you can usually stop doing the follow up scans. you can read more about it here:
