Hi, I have just come across this website whilst searching frantically on google for what to expect next (which I know is not a good plan) so decided instead to give this a go. I have read some other posts which offer me some reassurances.

I have been having various scans/tests since Nov 2024 with result that there is a very small nodule of 8 to 10mm on my left lung. I had a radioactive New Years Eve following a full body PET-CT scan the same day. I am still waiting on results and am feeling quite worried.

Over the past 6 weeks I have experienced every emotion possible including those I have never experienced before and I am dreading the results day! I just wondered whether anybody else is at this early stage or come through this stage and all was fine, or if not fine what happens next?


  • Thanks so much for your reassurance message. I pray all goes well for the surgery, the consultant I saw said my cancer is inoperable and saying the chemotherapy will maybe prolong my life for a year or so if I’m lucky and respond well to chemo. I’m praying for a miracle 

    just so angry with GP as been asking for a scan for 18 months now and so has the chest clinic and still no appointment until I came down with pneumonia.

    i wish you well with surgery. Keep strong you can do this Heart️Pray tone1Heart️

  • So sorry to hear this sisterchic CryCry I really do pray that you respond well to chemo. I’m not sure how I would cope with this news.  I’m just hoping that I have early stage Pray Stay strong yourself honey, miracles can happen. Lots of hugs to you Heart️
