i have read nothing but bad stuff about non calcified lung nodules. i have a 8mm non calcified lung nodule. i was wondering, has anyone ever had one that was non calcified and NOT cancerous??? after reading about these nodules in all sorts of forums, i have little if any hope at all.

Maryann,
I do not have any statistics but I have read much of the same information you have. i also have a non calcified nodule that is currently stable. I am due for another CT scan in December. What does your Doctor say about it and what tests will you have done as follow up?
