Understanding Lung Nodules: Diagnosis, Monitoring and Treatment - 10/18/22 - Living Room

[@NoName-jr2eo]

I have learned far more about lung nodules from this video than I did from the doctor that did my scan! He simply said " you have nodules on your lungs"! And that was all he told me. I waited for him to explain the findings but he simply filled out his little chart then told me I can go. I should have spoke up? No, I should not need to...HE should have and is suppose to do his job completely and he failed to do so. I told my regular doctor that I was found to have lung nodules. Did she do any explaining? NO she did not! Instead, I had to wait until I came across this video!! That scan was done over a year or more ago and I'm just now leaning about these nodules. What has happened to the medical community where so many doctors seem to not care to inform their patients of the findings...and I mean fully inform them. It feels like you going into a medical factory being lined up like cattle and shoved out the door. Leads me to believe most doctors and medical facilities are only about the money and that means round 'em up and push them through! This is why I have come to nearly despise doctors and medical facilities. Things never used to be this way. Use to be it was the exception but, not any more. Worse than pathetic!!

I have two lung nodles, one is a glass one and I went to the doctor, and he wants a pet scan done. And if I can't get one, then another cat scan in 3 months. I don't know whether to be concerned or not.

About 40 years ago I spray painted military vehicles with paint that contained hexavalent chromium, hexamethylene diisocyanate, toluene diisocyanate, and a number of other harmful substances. I did not use any respirators or other protective equipment. The aerosolized paint entered my nose and got into my hair and on my eyelashes. In Nov. 2022 I had a CT chest for chronic coughing, which showed I have two nodules (3mm and 8mm) and bibasilar atelectasis. My doctor told me to wait a year for my next CT, which will be in Nov. 2023. From the ages of 18-28 I smoked less than a pack a day. I am now 63.
