Hello Teresa, I am so happy you responded to me, 😢 I’ve been so sad and can’t say much to anyone! When you say shortness of breath is it in casual times? No, if I’m just at home, or out walking normally, not very fast or uphill, then I’m ok, uphill gets a bit breathtaking lately after Covid years! I don’t have chronic coughs either.
When I did the cardiac CTA and the result of the lungs were sent quickly with the GGN, needless to say I was blindsided, and the doctor never explained, not even brushed upon what it may mean so the internet has been the only place I’ve looked and the results haven’t been good!
Thank you fir caring enough to write to me!

Please remember to post in the Lung Health discussion thread that I mentioned in my post to you, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/groundglass-opacities-within-the-lungs-what-does-it-mean/, @sienabellisima, and remember that it is always your right to get a second opinion, if you feel that something else needs to be done.

I noticed that you had a cardiac CTA. Was this done to follow up on a cardiac issue? Have you had any cancer diagnosis in the past?
