Hi,I posted with the wrong username earlier.The correct username is Lilly2 not sunny2.I'm new here and was inquiring about how multifocal might present.I discovered I had a nodule two months after a car accident which was not mentioed in tne hospital report instead a pulmonologist noticed it later.Eight months later in June went back for follow up Ct and it grew was spiculated and was solid and took up suv on pet scan. Drs said they believed it was malignant but I wanted a needle biopsy first.I had been canceled for biopsy three times in different centers due to supine hypertension(which means my BP goes high when I lay down). Finally had it down successfully at Mayo and it is adenocarcinoma and will have suegury soon. In June when we discovered the nodule grew three tiny nodule were also seen for the first time all ranging upto 3mm bilaterally. So at my newest Ct in Oct the radiologist said thwy are subsolid so ggo/some solid which is different from the dominant nodule that is going to be removed.The Drs just say they are very small and that
they may go away.I am concerned and ask alot of questions and was told they could represent multifocal adenocarcinoma but cant determine that now. This has been a shocking and scary time .I just wanted to ask if anyone else presented like this? Thank you and you are all in my healing thoughts.:)
