Thanks for welcome. The most concerning mass was removed 12/29/21. Pathology report says Moderately differentiated invasive adenocarcinoma, 3.1 cm mass., Visceral pleural invasion absent, surgical margin is negative, lymph nodes negative. A PET scan from 4 weeks before surgery showed no indication of cancer throughout body. So defined as a stage 1b because of size (less than 3cm to be state 1a). But I have other things to watch in lungs. I read all the reports and google all the medical terms. I would just like to have an idea of how things will play out, how often the scans, potential for new developments and potential treatment. I need to plan for the future. I would like to also plan for some vacation. Unfortunately, I also discovered in December that I have a single 70% cardiac artery blockage. So management is critical. With stents, one is on medication that prohibits surgery for significant time. Something one does not want to do with lung cancer!!!
I am on medication for blockage now because had they put in the stent I would not have been able to remove the cancer, and stent would not have been much useful then! Turns out that a study came out that shows people on medication do as well as people with stent. So I want a clear understanding of what my risks and options are.

What is a "link". My first cancer (stage 1b) removed in Dec 2021 is 20 years after I quit. I guess I did well to quit then
