I have been diagnosed with multifocal NSCLC, this is my eighth year dealing with it. Get scans at 120 day interval and had a nodule form 18 months ago - very slow growth. I’m at Mayo first week of January to see if it remains stable.

I strongly believe in educating myself so I can become a better patient and help my med team. The info you provided me helps a great deal, I’ve never had reference to ILD but it describes me to a tee. With the similarity of our conditions, let’s continue to trade notes.

Am very pleased to trade notes with you.
Now that it is the law that medical institutions must post test results and doctors' notes, it is very important to read everything posted. And many people find mistakes in their records, so it offers the chance to correct them. CT scan reports note many things - have you read yours to see what else they say about your lungs? My scans always noted interstitial lung disease, but I wasn't sure what that meant overall for me. But after the recent pneumonitis, I had more terms to google with.
I am multifocal with many nodules. They are watching two closely now and there are others but slower growing or ground glass.
