Hi Meri - Finding "something" in a chest x-ray in a clinic does not mean you have cancer - I'd assume it is nothing serious until told otherwise. My general rule is to try not to worry until there is definitely something to worry about - there will be many tests and such down the road that are worrisome but turn out to be nothing - You have enough real stuff to worry about without worrying about stuff that may or may not be signifiant. They found all sorts of stuff in my scans and X-rays pre transplant that meant nothing but were noted anyway. Stay strong and positive!

Best, Paul
