Subject: Nodules found in "good lung" last weeks CAT Scan
Date: 06/04/2008

I have had clean PET scans for over 2 years.  Now they say there are some nodules in the other  lung. Apparently these have been there but showed no indication of a problem no growth etc. no markers no indication in the PET scan.  Now they have apparently doubled in size in the last 5 months.  Has anyone run into this. n My appt. to discuss it isn't for 2 weeks and we all know what the stress is like!

Thanks for any help you can offer.

My husband had this happen and they started him on Tarceva and it has helped, he has been on it since last august,  Thank God for these miracle drugs.  Good luck and God Bless.
