Hi,
i am a 35 year old female in good health. While having a c/t done for another reason the physicians detected a mass in my left diaphragm.

I went back for an mri. I was told they do not know what the mass is. All they could tell me is "it is non specific, solid, soft tissue mass not consistent with a cyst,fatty tumor,vascular tumor, or adrenal mass."

the mass measures 4.7cm by 1.7cm. They want me to return every 3-6 months to have mri's done. I feel I need more info because i'm very nervous.

Are there other tests I should ask about? They told me they could not do a biopsy. Why would that be?

I have had a slight discomfort in that area for around a year now. I noticed it while sleeping on that side, but thought it was a sore muscle.

If anyone could help me i'd really appreciate it. Thank you.

Jennifer
