Vat open lung biopsy
My consultant has recommended I have open lung biopsy and after reading some of the comments on here from people who have had this ,I feel that I will refuse this surgery,I work part time in a warehouse two days a week .
My symptoms are a ct scan picked up some nodules in my lower lobe left lung ,I'm not in any sort of pain or short of breathe .
In 2013 I had a needle biopsy to the same lung and it was diagnosed as inflammation and he thinks this might be the case again ,should I put myself through this pain and inconvenience just to be told it's inflammation again ,I'm in a dilemma about what to do
