After sitting and waiting to see Dr. B. for over an hour and having prepared myself to deal with the news that the nodule in my lung had grown again or his advice that, even if it hadn't, he thought it would be a good idea to deal with it sooner than later, I was so relieved when he told me that, although he had not received the report on last week's CT scan, he could see from the pictures that the nodule was now a linear feature rather than its previous round shape and that in his opinion it was healing up and was definitely not a cancer.
I thought there was going to be a "but" but, no, there was no bad news to go along with the good.
I will see him after another scan in six months but it's almost certainly just a formality.
So now all I have to hope is that the lower half of the scan looking at my pelvic area doesn't show Mr. R. any bad news. I haven't heard from the Urology department yet but no doubt they will book an appointment for my check up eventually. I don't have the same concerns about that as I did about potential lung cancer.
