Advice: It sounds like you have a complex medical history and a potentially complicated situation. The best advise i can give is to ask the doctor who ordered the x-ray to explain it to you and refer you to the appropriate caregiver. I wish you well.

Talk 2 UR ONCOLOGIST: Findings on chest x-rays may be "suspicious", but rarely "diagnostic". Important considerations include comparison to prior chest x-ray and your clinical history. I anticipate that you will need a ct of the chest for more definitive evaluation. While it is normal human nature to assume the worst, try not to get too far ahead of yourself. Good luck-i hope it's a false alarm.
