@teresalane- A warm welcome to Mayo Connect. You've come to the right place for information and support and comfort. I am a twenty-one year multifical adenocarcinoma survivor. I've had 4 cancers and a total of 6 nodules removed and have had radiation (SBRT) and chemo. I know about your fear. Have you considered getting a second opinion? I question the wait too- although I have had many nodules scare the hell out of me and then disappear. Are you still a smoker?
