Hi Jemsmum,

Covid does cause inflammation in the lung, so I think you should trust your consultant on this. Please try to stay positive until you have more info.

Hope you get some clarity and good news from your oncologist next week.

Covid definitely causes inflammation of the lungs.... member side my family have had issues with this - nothing serious or long lasting.

praying for good news

Thank you I only had mild symptoms but praying its that doesn't seem logical that last scan in April was clear and then melanoma can appear 4 months later
