I am 42 years old with a history of a two pack a day smoker, and I was diognoised with several non calcified nodules on both my lungs. I had a ct scan in December. I was told by my pumonoligist that they want to monitor the nodules by having a ct scan every three months for a year to check for any changes. I just had my second ct scan in March which revealed that my nodules have grown to 6mm and now I have 10 nodules on both my lungs. I also have been diognoised with emphysema. what testing would you advise for the nodules?or is it better to wait another two months, have another ct scan done to see if any more change to have a biopsy  or a vats done? I was told it is best to wait due to the small size of the nodules. what do you think is my best option?
