Further eval: Where is this nodule located by the way?But whatever is - I am concern with the quite rapid growth of the nodule. More evaluation is needed- to find out what it is- and that will likely include a biopsy or resection and plus minus other imaging like a pet/ct scan if indicated. Discuss with your doctor further.
