Re: Freaking Out! Abnormal chest xray after 7 years

Michele,
My prayers are definitely with you. Try to breathe and not worry. I have heard more that one that little blips will show on a scan that are nothing. They just pay attention to them more closely with us. Positive thinking honey ... it's going to be nothing! Best, Leslie
