I was very tired so my medical doctor ordered a sleep study for me and then the suggested I go see a lung doctor. I had slight sleep apnea the doctor suggested If I would want to be tested for lung cancer screening because I was over 50 and been smoking for 30 years.
The doctor called me back three days later telling me they found a mass on my lung I had to have surgery. They had to remove my whole left lung and it spread to four lymph nodes I am so blessed I had the lung screening done. I havebeen cancer free for two and a half years!
