Went To Pulmonologist And Got Results Of Petscan. Inconclusive. COPD Is So Bad A Biopsy Is Risky. Sent Home To Think About. Advice?
Thanks @ LynnMCopp. I did have the biopsy and it was cancer. Did a wedge resection. So far doing ok. Catscan the 27th.
We are near Lake Scranton.
I live right by all of the hospitals im in east scranton.
I really hope all turns out well for you keep me posted I'll be praying for you.
Saw a surgeon and both doctors decided to wait and do another CT scan in January and if any changes will do biopsy then. Still say very risky. Can't take out a lobe so will be a wedge resection (?). I go to Moses Taylor but think surgery will be Mercy because they have a new robotics machine. I also go for pulmonary rehab at Moses Taylor.
