I was diagnosed with a mass in my lung in early January a couple of years ago. I was sent to a local pulmonary doctor and called every week for an appointment. I was told that I was next on the list. After 3 months I was finally told he was retiring. I was then sent to a pulmonary doctor in another town. In June I saw him and had a bunch of tests completed. All came back negative for cancer but…., he did not believe the tests results. He sent me to a cancer doctor where she decided to do all of the testing and more over again. Only 1 biopsy came back positive for cancer. Finally in August I had both the top and bottom right lobes removed. I had both Adenocarcinoma cancer and carcinoid cancer different cancers in the different lobes. Thank goodness the carcinoid tumors grow slowly. Waiting is a big part of this game!!! I still have more tiny carcinoids. I do not know what comes next but I doubt if they can take out any more lung tissue
Good luck during the long waits. Keep busy
My question is…. Can a carcinoid tumor turn into an Adenocarcinoma tumor????
