I have lung cancer in both lungs.The one in the right lung is 1 by 1 by 1 1/4 cm.I have 2 in the left lung.
They did not measure them because they were found by a pet scan.But are about the same size.They are calling them nodules.
What I would like to know is what is the difference between a nodule and a tumor?I am taking taxol and carboplatin.I have had 3 treatments.
Thank You for any information.
Leon
