instruction: hi doctor six years ago I had a it scan that incidentally found three small lung nodules I had a follow up scan six months later and they were the same and resembled scars I just started worrying about them as I have been a bit tight cheated for a couple of days I do have asthma every now and then and I am worrying that what if they were cancer back then and are now grown into masses and are causing symptoms am I right in thinking that if they were malignant back then that I would have had serious symptoms before now I have attached my report
output: hi the nodules found six years back would have manifested into multiple lesions by now if there were cancer and you are right in your thoughts usually cancer nodules double in 30 to 180 days time and if the nodules did not change in six months then cancer is not a likely possibility an annual chest ray is a recommended test to keep track and for a general check up purpose
