8 mm lung nodule possible malignancy: What should I do?

No new information yet. I am having another Chest CT at 3 months that is scheduled for mid-November. It's on my mind all the time, but I'm trying to focus on other things. I did read about the possible tests of a PET scan or possibly a biopsy. Some sources say they would do those things after finding the 11 mm nodule, but others say to do the Chest CT first. Does anyone on this thread have any information about the order of what happens?
Thanks for the inquiry, sorry I don't have anything new to tell yet. I will have more info in November.
Take care everybody.

@ready2talk2000 hiya from Dave in Pa : I’ve found the order of things are between you and your oncologist. They pretty much follow the 3/6 month follow up watching routine. I had CT’s and alternating Pet/Ct’s during my 1-1/2yr wait n watch period. This past July I was diagnosed. the hardest lesson for me is to stay in today; this is the only moment that matters. Not my next chemo session, not my next Pet/Ct, not the next report on how far my mNSCLC has spread. Only today. Say a prayer, do something good for yourself and then someone else, and please stop worrying about tomorrow. It ain’t here just yet. Best wishes DgA
