Lucky you have no symptoms. In the 12 years it took doctors to finally diagnose my lungs full of nodules, I was also told it many times the nodules may be from a past infection. I'd always tell them if it was from a past infection, they wouldn't be growing year after year. How large was the tumor you had removed?

@californiazebra it was about 3cm. I was very frustrated that I’d been misinformed by my Dr for all these years. Also all my abdominal CTs showed the slow growth but not one radiologist commented . Most of the scans were done at the same hospital so it’s very easy for the radiologist to do a comparison. It was only last summer when I was seen in a different hospital that the radiologist alerted me.
