A member asked:
Dx 18 mos ago w/ kidney cancer w/2 nodules in lungs. asymptomatic since. coughing in the morning now.could this be the cancer showing itself?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need evaluation/Test: The lung nodules may be related to kidney cancer. The best way to find out is to see if they have increased in size over the last 18 months. This can be done with a repeat Chest X-ray or CT scan(same test which showed the nodules first time should be repeated and compared to the original Test). This will provide you an answer.
