As well as copd on my lungs , I have scaring and a nodule, I think from covid in 2022, I have had ct scans check up. The one in July I had has shown a slight increase. Had to see the consultant yesterday. Soon as I walked in ,he asked have you got cancer in your family which is bad enough to panic , let alone as I am autistic. Not one my mums side , dads I dont know.

He asked twice ,who lives with you. Which my daughter does. They don't know what it is yet but I have to have more tests, got enough problems with my health as well as hypermobility syndrome disorder, osteoarthritis in my feet , copd ,now this.

He put the fear of God into me. Feel down

    Sorry to hear they've scared you @Andi66 sounds like the doc needs to work on their bedside manner a bit. I'd try not to worry, it's probably nothing, but I know how terrifying it can be to hear a doc ask so many questions, but they'll just be wanting to cover all bases.
