Lucky I took a bad fall in January and my forehead hit the pavement while carrying 2 heavy bags from a store. 2 girls who worked there came running out and called an ambulance. They did a CT scan on my head and neck. The Doctor told me my head and next wer fine, BUT, he could see a node at the top of my right lung. I then set up a full CT scan of my lungs and that was the only node I had. The Doctor removed a portion of the lung and got all the cancer out but that air leak happened and I need for someone who knows about this to give me some advice......Like another Thoracic Surgeon. That's why I contacted the Mayo Clinic.
