EC 2.5 years ago now CT shows a 2mm nodule in lung

Hi, 

I started visiting this forum 2.5 years ago when I had grafe 2 stage Endometrial Cancer. I had a total hysterectomy and external n internal radiotherapy. 

Everything went well until last month. I had a CT scan and a 2mm nodule was found on my left lung. The doctor has arranged another CT scan to check it 3 months later. 

I wonder if anyone had similar experiences that they had nodules in lungs in their post cancer treatment checkups? If yes, what happened?

Many thanks!

  • I'm sorry to hear about the nodule that was recently found on your left lung Chui. I know this must be worrying after everything you went through 2 and a half years ago.

    Hopefully some of our members who have had similar findings post cancer treatment will share their stories and advice with you soon but if you'd like to talk any of this through with one of our cancer nurses, they're just a phone call away on 0808 800 4040. Their helpline is open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and they will do all they can to support you and answer any other questions you may have at this time.

    We're thinking of you Chui and will have our fingers crossed your next CT scan in 3 months time will show this nodule is no cause for concern

    Kind regards,

  • I had surgery and chemo for bowel cancer last year 

    At my 6 month check they discovered some nodules one of which was suspect 

    I was put on the list for a PETscan. Had a worrying few weeks wait but it came back. OK. No mestasis 

    Just some scaring and inflammation. Possibly from. The chemo. 

    It's only human to let your mind go to the worst possible outcome. I certainly did.. So many things can cause nodules or scarring as I'm sure you know, if the medics were concerned atall they would have done a Pet scan. They are just keeping a close eye on you as they are with me. I'm getting 3 month scans now.

    Wishing you the best 

  • Thank you for your reply Auntymay  

    Pleased to know your scan came back clear. I have felt a lot better after having 2 positive replies to my worry. 

    I can have a good night sleep tonight and am looking forward to enjoying a happy summer!  

    Best wishes,
