Q: Spots on lungs
asked by: bhall33 on October 9th, 2009

I have had x-rays on my lungs for the second time now an they still show spots on my lungs an they are spreading an getting bigger. My primary care doc. an the raideoligist do not think they were caused from were I was sick that they dont know what is causing it. I have a CT scan Monday but was wondering if anyone might know what else could cause this besides pneumonia ( it has been ruled out). This has been going on now for 7 weeks an I have been on 4 deferant types of antibiotics an none have helped. the pain in my chest is still there an it is slightly hard to breath.

Hopefully the CAT scan will help with a dx...if not, a biopsy of the area(s) would be in order.

Did they rule out blood clots?

Why were you taking antibiotics?

If you can't wait until Monday by all means have someone drive you to the nearest ER. You know how you feel and for your sake I would rather you be safe than sorry.
