Small lung nodule: Turned out to be cancer after 5 years monitoring

I don't plan on waiting at all. On Monday I'm having a suspicious bone lesion removed from my shoulder. If it's benign then we will proceed. If it is cancerous then I guess it's a whole new ball game. I was just going back an forth on radiation vs surgery, since I have the options.

I wish you the best of luck with Monday's procedure. Not a peaceful time for you!

If I had to make a decision with your situation would you like to know what I would do? (This, is of course if the biopsy is clean-no cancer.)

Can you write down the pros and cons for both radiation and surgery and see if that helps with decision-making?

Hi @trip03, I wanted to check back in with you to see how things are going. What were the results of the bone lesion from your shoulder? Do you know if the lung nodule is lung cancer or what type? Would love an update.
