Hi Mortalguy most lung nodule are like consolidation leftover from bout of pneumonia infections stuff like that and that could explain the size of yours.

Doctors only cut it out if it's cancer and the can or it's causing infection's on regular basis

Our lungs are very fragile and need time to recover from infection's

The size itself is tiny - as Dennis pointed out, they only remove them if they are cancerous, so try to stay positive till you hear the diagnosis and what they intend to do about it. All very best wishes.
