Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion this x ray reporting is suggestive of mass like lesion. Mass in the lung can be
1. Malignant
2. Benign.
But possibility of malignant lung mass is more in your case.
I advuce to get done CT THORAX first for better evaluation of mass. And if possible biopsy from the mass for confirmation of the diagnosis.
If it turns out to be malignant your patient should eat healthy food like fruits, vegetable. Give her multivitamins for nutritional support.
