My mother had to go in for a chest X-ray...they spotted something and sent her for a CT scan...the CT scan said that it had enlarged or something like that. Does this mean that in all likelyhood she has cancer?

Hi Jini...people would need more information about what's in the CT Scan report in order to give you any ideas or suggestions. If you don't have a copy of the CT report call and request one, then you'll at least know what the radiologist suspects. There are many things other than cancer that could be going on, hopefully your Mom will be fine.

Sincerely..............Tiz.
