Did anyone ever get a surprise primary lung cancer finding?

Posted by phylrose1taubezin @phylrose1taubezin, Jun 8, 2023

CT scan because of high 27 29 marker revealed a mass with associated right hilar/mediastinal adenopathy which may reflect a primary lung carcinoma rather than metastatic disease. Possible tissue diagnosis. Freaking out as to the possibility. Thought I was dealing with breast cancer. Can’t seem to get control of the situation.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Breast Cancer Support Group.

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.
