Erin,
I understand what you are going through. A long story but I too have nodules in the left lung and have had two CT's three months apart with no change. After a department consultation the decision was they are from radiation. I go in for another CT in June.

Are the nodules on your radiated side? If you are uncomfortable with the wait, perhaps a second opinion would be in order.

Good luck,
Donna
