Noticed 3 nodules on my right lung (scared to death)

@cdianeb I was supposed to have one removed via wedge resection in 2018. I was all prepped for surgery and the interventional radiologist had to call down to the OR to tell my surgeon it was gone. surgery cancelled! I think it's important to remember that other things can cause nodules aside from cancer (even if we have/had lung cancer). hugs!

@mamajite nodules show up in many radiology reports, which can scare us…having had things like a bad flu or bronchitis can cause them…many are harmless…docs watch them carefully for changes…chemo can be quite effective in zapping the bad ones, and there are some other procedures that are used as well.
