Can somomene help me interpret these CT Results?

[Uben]

3. My experience......

My wife had CT scans of her lungs and there were a couple of nodules discovered. Her doc said normal procedure is to wait a couple of months and see if they are growing. I also read where 99% of nodules discovered by CT scans were benign, so I wouldn't be too concerned at this point. She is a lifetime smoker and over 60 yrs old, which places her in a higher risk category.

The last 3 times I went in for my annual check-up, my GP has sent me to specialists for various reasons. The most recent was a nodule on prostate gland...benign. Before that it was for a kidney scan....nothing there. The other was for a lump on a testicle which was a benign cyst that would never become cancer.

So, while I am relieved to know I have no serious ailments, I am glad I had them looked at, and I'm glad My doc caught the irregularities. It gives one a little peace of mind. We're all just one doctor's appt away from finding out we have a serious ailment.
The day will come when it is serious. Until then, we should live each day like its our last!

I'm certainly no doctor and I would never tell someone to disregard their doctor's advice. It is good to be vigilant!
