Go for it: Rather than getting anxious, face your fear head-on. There are many causes for such finding. Your doctor will know the best next step. Do not procrastinate. Good luck

Go to PCP now.: I know how frightening it is to find a tumor anywhere in the body because of the dreaded C word. However, it is also worse not to know what it is. It could be benign and you are just going to worry needlessly.Your PCP will order appropriate tests and refer you to the appropriate lung specialist. Make an appointment now. Take care.
