Sorry to hear about your wife. I’ve had pulmonary breathing test but not sniff test. Says I have a small nodule on lung but not worried since not a smoker. ENT did two scopes and said no lesions or nodules. Gastroenterologist did an EDG and found some bacteria and infection, followed with antibiotics and steroids. Been no change. Go back to UAB in March.
Hope you gets answers and relief.

Thanks!
Beware of the non smoker thought...you can get lung cancer - smoker or not! Linda Wortman can attest to that...
Good luck with you health issues..

@cathleenmc - good afternoon. I'm butting in because thinking that because you aren't a smoker disqualifies you from getting lung cancer. As the saying goes, if you have lungs, you can get lung cancer.
Since a nodule was found I suggest that you make an appointment with a pulmonologist to rule out lung cancer.
I do hope that your doctor is correct but if you haven't had a CT scan he can't know that.
