Hi. Jean is correct. I had CT scans in 2001, long before BC, and had three nodules. I subsequently had follow-up scans (two as I remember) with no increase in size. Radiologist told me these are very common, and to quote him, about 40% of people my age would probably have nodules if they also had scans. He blamed various types of infection.
If I had never had these prior scans and then had one after BC I would have been terrified. But I had them years before and had the X-rays for comparison. In that respect I was lucky. Perhaps you've had these nodules for many years. But of course you do want to follow up, just to be sure.
