Small lung nodules: How often should they be monitored?

@hatshepsut- Good morning. Sue is right, GG (ground glass) is just a description for a cell change. With any cell change, there is also a concern. We are people, not numbers. And doctors really can't tell you either. I have lung cancer and have had it for over 24+ years. There are no reliable odds for that because when I was diagnosed it was 1997. The "odds" then were 18 months.

There's an old saying: Probability is not prediction. Correlation is not causation.

May I ask why you were having a CT of your stomach?

I apparently have an ulcer. My GP ordered the abdominal scan to rule out other issues. The abdominal scan was normal except for the nodule(s).
