@doublecancer, You’ve certainly had more than your share of cancers! I’ll be interested to hear how much the lesions have changed after you have the next scan. If they are calling them lesions, not nodules or masses, that may be a good sign. It may be very early and slow growing. But I’m sorry to hear that you are facing yet another difficult diagnosis. The emotional weight of a stage IV diagnosis can be devastating. Do you feel that you have a good support system? Has your oncologists office offered any emotional support services?
