I haven't been given a date yet for the pet scan. Here is what I know. the nodule was seen very tiny(?) 2 years ago. Last year it grew some but he did not sya it was spicualted. This year a bit bigget and spiculated. He is not worried , he says. not yet. I have rhemutoid arthritis very bad. I have asthma, have had really bad winter colds. I just had a very bad painful winter. was on prednisone twiceam now on hydroxychloroquine and 3oomg of gabapentin at night 1 hydroxych, in am. I also have brio, singulair, baby aspirin omeprazole and .5 lorazapam. I have symptoms of cancer yet not. Will pet scan answer once and for all? ALSO I believe he said it is solid, though he was wondering if i could cough it up. I never knew to try but last year i used to cough a lot and had much mucous i don't believe i brought it all up. Could this be that and calcified?
