[QUOTE="JimAndy, post: 6516350, member: 69774"] I have it on my lungs, and as odd as this sound i was relived to be told that what it was, as at the start they were talking about the Cancer at worst and TB at best. I first had a CAT scan but that was still unclear, so had to have a biopsy done. it wasn't a big deal and took about 4 hours from going in till leaving, and was done under day surgery, most of that time was waiting as i had to stay for 2.5 hours in case i had a reaction to any of the drugs they used and had to have some one stay with me for the next 24 hours when i got home. Currently they are not treating me for it, as the treatment for it as ollie says is Steroids and as a diabetic the 2 don't mix that well, so i'm on a 6 months review, with instructions to go straight to A&E if my eye sight start playing up or i have problems breathing, currently my lungs are not working as well as they should as i get out of breath easily. The DR tell me it should clear up in 3-4 years. He also said they don't know what causes it, as i have never smoked and have always been a bit anal about wearing a proper mask (not one of those half asses paper one with a rubber band to hold it on ) indeed for the last ten years it been a full face mask.
