END OF SUMMER - THORACIC SURGERY T+104

My right middle lobe lobectomy was on Friday, May 24. I had my 3-month appointment 104 days later on Thursday, September 5.  While I wasn't dreading the results of the CT scan, I did feel a little apprehensive, despite the fact I've felt really great over the summer and I've actually forgotten about the surgery.

The CT scan showed no recurrence of cancer and no new nodules. The only negative comment in the radiology narrative was "Enlarging prominent right hilar lymph node which is favored to be reactive. Recommend attention on follow-up". Harry Marshall told me it was still within the "range of normal" and probably nothing to worry about. So I'm considering myself "good to go".
