Go back to the...: ...physician who ordered the test. Talk over the findings on CT and your symptoms and clinical course. Together come up with a plan for further management of your symptoms. Food for thought: Any fevers? Nasal discharge? Post nasal drip? Sore throat? Systemic symptoms such as chills, night sweats? What is the status of your Hodgkin's disease? Best Regards.
