Sabina - Keep me in prayers this morning please Hi Everyone! I went and had my CT on my lungs last week. I go today and find out if this lymph node has grown. I guess it had grown to the point where they usually biopsy but wanted to wait 3 months to see if its growing more . He said it was in a bad place.
