What Do Nodules On The Lungs Indicate?
after having a full body ct scan I was told that there are a few small nodules on the lung. Also a glass(?) on the other lung which I have COPD which could be the reason for that. The oncologist wants a follow up scan in three months to monitor the nodules. Should I seek another opinion or wait for another scan?
