Bum and buggeration :(

I’m really not sure why I’m posting on here but I think I am probably going to be told I have lung cancer.
I have had heart failure for nearly 7 years and over the last couple of years I have had episodes of breathlessness but the latest one hasn’t cleared up. I have seem my gp, and had telephone cardiologist appointments where I have said about the shortness of breath but every time been told it’s because of the heart failure.
Two weeks ago I was sent to Ambulatory care, had bloods and a chest X-ray and there clearly was something on the X-ray.
The consultant said it could be odd blood vessels but put me on the 2 week pathway for a CT scan that I had earlier today.
I know I should not google but looking up images of what I clearly saw on my X-ray it’s pretty much looks like lung cancer.
My shortness of breath is getting worse but I’ve been told I won’t get a result from today’s CT scan for 4-6 weeks 🫣
A handhold would be wonderful x

Mine should be keyhole too @CandidOP , with removal of lymph nodes too so hopefully it’ll be straightforward like yours.
Perhaps she was telling me the worse case scenario but the Thoracic Specialist Nurse pretty much said the same thing….
Your post is very reassuring, thank you so much!

Hope you’re doing as well as you can OP

Just coming in here, my DH had lung cancer, if the NHS had done everything right (spoiler they didn’t) his would have been curable by keyhole surgery. I’m currently mid sue for this but the last expert report states that if they had removed them by keyhole he would have lived well between 7-16 years ! (He had a host of other medical issues, hence the big difference)

Hope yours goes as well.
