Have Enlarged Lymph Nodes On Heart, Lump On Lung, Type 1 Diabetes, OCD. Help
My son has enlarged lymph nodes on his heart and a 2centimeter lump on his lung. He will have a pet scan soon and then surgery to biopsy. He never smoked. He has been type 1 diabetic since 12. He has severe o c d and has fought so hard to control it. Now this! He is so good, it just isn't fair. I can' tell you how many people he has helped in his short 51 yrs. nor the loved ones he has lost to unspeakable deseases. I am so helpless to help him. I wish I could give him some information about this condition that would help. If it weren't for the lump, I could hope it is only an infection. I don't know what to say to him. I wish I could be there but my husband is recovering stage 4 prostate cancer and I can't leave him alone. I can only pray. Please give us some hope Thank you and god bless you.
I'm really sorry for the things currently happening to your family. A lung mass doesn't always mean cancer of the lung. There are some infections, other cancers, and some other conditions. Of course you're mostly concerned about the lymph nodes. I can never guarantee but there are hopes that it might be a parasitical/fungal infection which can show up as lung masses. Or it can be lymphoma also a cancer with relatively better prognosis showing up in the lungs. I pray for your family to heal and hope that there isn't anything serious.
