  • Hello Leaane182

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been unwell within the past few months and that as a result, you're now waiting to see a specialist at the respiratory clinic. It's understandable that you're feeling worried about the nodule that's been found on your lung.

    Hopefully, you won' have to wait too long to see the Consultant and they will be able to give you some reassurance about things. In the meantime, I wonder if you might find it helpful to chat things through with one of our team of nurses. I'm sure they will be able to give you some advice, information, and support ahead of your appointment that may help. If you'd like to speak with them they're available Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Keep in touch Leaane182 and let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
