Can I ask a favour? when you find the answers to all the questions that have been given by the scan that was taken, please share with us simpletons that get a diagnoses instead of a medical doctorate when they visit a university hospital. Thanks in advance waiting with baited breath for an explanation.

[Quote] The lingula of the lung, also known as the lingula pulmonis sinistri, or the left upper lobe of the lung, is a tongue-shaped segment of the left lung. It corresponds anatomically to the right lung's middle lobe (the left lung only has two lobes, while the right lung has three). Lingula means little in Latin, so this lobe is also sometimes called the tongue of the lung. The lingula of the left lung has two segments: the superior, or upper segment and the inferior, or lower segment. [/quote]

Pulmonary consolidation: a clinical term for solidification into a firm dense mass.

Apical: The adjective for apex, the tip of a pyramidal or rounded structure, such as the lung or the heart.

[Quote] Asbestos fibers are known to cause lung fibrosis, but their role in emphysema is unclear. . . . Emphysema subtypes ... were separately scored ... which scores were added up to yield the total emphysema score. . . . An asbestosis diagnosis was ... a significant independent predictor of a higher total score. Emphysema was more common when workers had asbestosis or were heavily exposed to asbestos (insulators), but due to confounding factors the causative role of asbestos in emphysema needs further study.

Hi stilltruckin its all been up in the air my diagnosis

My lung doc was telling my docs i had bronchitasis but on results its i dont

Hospital sent dick to courts with xray sh## on and it did't work ...

So judge is pretty pissed

Acroding to scan the toung is two little masses less than 2cm each

I surpect lung doc is painting nice pic as when i seen my xray hole mass stretched right across my lung.

A dont think thay want courts to see xray becouse thay know am already doing my X GP for saying it was just panic attacks.

A just hope its nothing more sinister .. Have tryed looking but it makes me feel sick a just hope am not going up same road as MP

My husband is in hospital at moment with same sort of thing and whole family have to go through it too. I do all the questions and fighting for him. If you have someone you can trust who wants to do this for you then you would not have to have it in your face so much. You need to be enjoying as much of your life as you possibly can. So you want as much trusted support help and love and understanding as possible.

Keep on Daz I know its a battle.

My cardiologist is sending me and my doctor their concerns with my heart and their observations of my deteriorating breathing. I once again mentioned this to my doctor and the fact I have worked with asbestos for at least 15 years. For him to look at the report from an xray in 2010 to say "They do not say anything here?" I did not know myself until a few months back as I was told what we used to cut on a circular saw was safe! he reluctantly put me up for a spiro test which when I got to it they had no nurse qualified to do it and had to rebook.

It seems that they have had new directives back when I had lung failure in 2008 I was sick of them asking me if I had been working with asbestos and I said no it was asbesolux? I was told it was safe and contained no blue asbestos which was half true it contained the brown which is the second most harmful.

Keep your head up I am following you and your battles.

Hi Daz my mom worked at COD Donnington all her life and I remember one of the buildings catching fire they were made out of asbestos. We were all told to stay in our homes as the black smoke came over and the asbestos was found miles away. A girl I went to school has dies with this asbestos and a local solicitor was working on behalf of the people who had been effected good luck solicitors only work at one pace very slow

in reply to onamission

true woman also have died with asbestos,
