Hopefully you will get good test results back soon. You may want to ask your primary doctor for xanex to cut down the test anxiety. I swear the testing for my initial diagnosis had the worst anxiety.

I was diagnosed with 10-12 cm lung cancer tumor at age 46 back in 2000. I am now 69. It was discovered on a pre-op routine chest x-ray for hysterectomy. My hysterectomy was cancelled and three weeks later I had most of my right lung removed. Barb

Wow, that was a big tumor. Amazing that was 23 years ago and here you are. Glad they found it and took quick action.

I was diagnosed with stage 4 Lung CA only a month ago , thought I had a pneumonia, went to urgent care , they sent me to ER where I had Chest x-ray and CT scan when a mass showed up on my R upper lobe. Since have seen the oncologist , went for PET scan , now on the 14th my biopsy by Bronchoscopy, and I am a bit nervous. Still feel like I am in a bad dream.
I was a smoker, stopped 1 year ago. Has anyone had this procedure , need some feedback !!! Thanks! PS I am 70 years old, no other health issues
