Couple of weeks ago, a dear friend of mine was diagnosed with metastasised lung cancer.

She was just undergoing a routine APE (annual physical examination) when her chest x-ray revealed something suspicious.

Later, her chest CT scan looked like a star-filled sky on both lungs.

Pulmonary nodules.

Metastasized like cancer.

Stage 4.

All sounded so fatal and irreversible.

Body scan didn't find the origin of the cancer that metastasised to the lungs. Doctors then needed a sample of the pulmonary nodule for biopsy. So a video assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) was conducted two days ago.

Biopsy results? Benign. Making hers the 76th case in the world.

Next step? No chemotherapy. No surgery. Just medication I guess to dissolve the nodules.

Any similar case you know of?
