Lung nodule could be slow growing carcinoid: Watch and wait is scary

Posted by sun56 @sun56, Mar 25, 2023

Hi
Been diagnosed with 9mm lung nodule lower left node. Been told it was on old ct since 2017/18 at 4mm and that they are going to watch / wait if it increases to do biopsy and possible lobectomy. Scared.
Anyone ever had this experience or done the watch and wait ..?
