Cool A little nervous

Hi everyone. I thought I would write in and get some encouragement and good vibes from the men and women here. A couple of weeks ago I mentioned that I had a bone scan for leg pain and it was fine no problems but it did show a fractured rib (didn't even know I had one). I had been hiking in Victoria BC in September and took a spill,must of done it then. Anyway this past week I have been sick with lousy cough, stuffed up etc. Finally went to family doctor and she said my lungs were pretty full so she wanted to do a chest x-ray. She called the next day and said there was no pneumonia but they saw something on the lung behind where that fractured rib is. She said she sure it is nothing but they want to do a CT scan. Now I am getting worried. I think she said it was an opacity.
Anyway I am trying to remain calm and hopefully again they will say all clear. Yikes this is nerve wracking! Thanks for listening Lois
