Blood Tests?

Subject: Blood Tests?
Date: 09/07/2007
My husband had a ct scan done four months ago that found several nodules on his lungs. The dr said this was fairly common but they wanted him to come back in four to six months to have another ct done. He did this the other day and he was told yesterday that the radiologist diagnosed the nodules as metastasized cancer cells. His dr disagrees with the diagnoses. He is going to see a pulmanary specialist on Monday.

Part of the reason that the dr disagrees with the radiologist is that they did a blood test for other reasons back in April and there were no abnormalities. Would cancer definately show up on a blood test? Also, he had to convince his dr to do more blood tests yesterday. He didn't ask the dr how soon we would get the results. Does anyone know how long that usually takes? Thanks so much. I'm so scared. My husband is only 36 and we have a 3 month old baby.
