They removed part of his lung. His first checkup 6 months ago was clean.  The other day at his next checkup they said they saw a tumor on his Adrenal Gland.  He said with the dye they can tell whether it is cancer or benign.  He said it was cancer and they are going to do a brain MRI first and rule out that. Then they are going to discuss a treatment. He was told no surgery!  Does anyone out there have a similar story and could help us.!? jojokdz Sun, 27 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT  On 1/27/2008 jojokdz wrote:My husband had lung cancer a year back.
