Good News

[ledge]

Hi Lung Buddies

I just thought I would pass on some good news received today. It appears that my two lung nodules in my upper right and left lung have decreased in size. How, or why I have no idea. But I am off the surveillance list and referred back to my GP.

However, still have my Bronchiolitis obliterans, and mild bronchiectasis, but having one less thing to worry about is brilliant.

hugs to you all

Yeah,Yet more good news,this time from the Zebra gangs,hopefully those shrinking nodules are benign anyway but congratulations in order and hopefully you can soon tick them off on your unbucket list.

Thanks Skischool, well as I am off the surveillance list - these little devils have been monitored for nearly three years. I am going to try to forget that they even exist... ( er, does that make sense?)

[Hidden in reply to ledge]

That makes very good sense, congratulations. ☀️☀️☀️☀️🍾

So pleased for you.

One Zebra to another (but I can’t get them to face each other, I am sure they are friendly)

[ledge in reply to Katinka46]

Thank you oh friendly Zebra- just knowing there are a few of us out there is a comfort.

Glad you got that good news. Having one less worry makes a big difference. Out of curiosity, did you sort out your difficulties with your spiolto respimat?

[ledge in reply to CDPO16]

I did... I use a spacer.... makes all the difference. How I wish I would have known that all along. Just goes to show how useful this group is.

[HungryHufflepuff in reply to ledge]

So true! Thanks for sharing your good news, one less thing to worry about has to be good 👍

[Caspiana]

Very good news indeed ledge . That is a worry off your mind. xx 😊👍

[ledge in reply to Caspiana]

It certainly is ....having so much go wrong with my lungs over such a short period of time is bad enough but the thoughts that creep into your mind when no one is watching is awful. So one less thought process ...hoorah. hope you are keeping well x

[Collie4]

Good news. I’m pleased for you. I hope your good news continues. It’s hard living with a lung disease and so encouraging to get news like this. I have nodules in my right lung, and am anxious to have another scan to see how they are.

[ledge in reply to Collie4]

I feel for you, as the watch and wait approach is painful emotionally. But the fact that mine got smaller is I hope, a comfort to you as you sit it out.

[2greys]

Brilliant news and a huge weight lifted from you. From reading the letters from Consultant to GP, I learned that I also had two suspicious nodules that grew rapidly and then resolved by themselves. Followed by another that was, this time, malignant and needed treating.

[ledge in reply to 2greys]

Weird little blighters aren't they. The fact that I did incubate a third encouraged me too.l

[ledge in reply to ledge]

that should have been didn't ....

[Aingeful]

Any good news makes all the difference doesn't it? Hope it continues for you.👍👍👍

[ledge in reply to Aingeful]

[Peppy05]

Great news ledge, keep up the good work

[ledge]

Thank you, I don't know what I did to make them get smaller, but whatever it is, I will try to keep doing it!

[Izb1]

[ledge in reply to Izb1]

[JANET127]

YES!!!!! That is Great News! Janet127

[ledge]

In this instance size does matter, so smaller not larger in my book - is a real whoopee do x

[myamunchkin]

fantastic news one less thing to think about

[Suesal46]

That’s really good to hear ledge well done sue

[Osha]

Good news ledge wonderful to have one less worry

[Dids49]

Hi Ledge, so pleased to hear your good news, not much of it about lately is there. Just wanted to say that 3 years ago when I had my scan they found a lesion on one of my lungs. I was at an all time low at the time after losing my dear husband and not caring what happened to me I refused any further investigation but agreed to a further scan to 'keep an eye' on things. Thankfully the lesion has reduced in size and I was referred from the consultant back to my GP. My COPD has deteriorated drastically since then over recent years and breathing is very difficult. Hope your little bit of good luck will continue for you, thanks for sharing your bit of good news.

[ledge in reply to Dids49]

A big hug comes your way x

[Dids49 in reply to ledge]

Thank you x

[goat-lady in reply to Dids49]

Hope your spirits are recovering from such big blows. Best wishes.

[Dids49 in reply to goat-lady]

Thank you for your kind reply x

[majji]

Having one less thing to ruminate over is always a plus - so now just keep on aiming for the second

[ledge in reply to majji]

Just staying on an even keel for as long as possible would perhaps be my second..I guess that's the secret wish of most of us really

[majji in reply to ledge]

I am sure you are right Ledge - may I wish you much success with that?

[ledge in reply to majji]

thanks majji..... its always work in progress on that one x

[majji in reply to ledge]

Then I will root for progressively successful for you Ledge - every good wish to you

[Pippers]

Great to share your good news... hang on in there!

[ledge]

Thank you
