Hi John, welcome to the group. You said that a week ago you were diagnosed with an 8mm solid nodule in your right lung. How was the nodule found? Have you had a biopsy to determine whether it is cancerous or not?

I look forward to learning more about you and to the questions you have.

New CT scan last month showed a 18mm cloudy, 9mm solid nodule, none in 3 prior scans over 3 yrs. Pulmonologist treating it as infection. Then 3 months do another CT..
A former smoker, 10 yrs ago, doc says 25% chance , not 3% , chance cancer.. knock it out with radiation if still there..
Opinion ??
