Hi Sandy,
Like Vinny said, maybe ask exactly what they mean. There are lymph nodes all over the body. My father had some that were constricting his vocal cords at one point because they were swollen. I sounds like the doctor is talking about outside of the lung. Sending good vibes your husband's way that the chemo shrinks the lymph node. HUGS. I'm sure others will respond soon too.

I'm confused...is an enlarged lymph node necessarily a tumor?vinny3 said:Do you know what they mean by next to the lung? I'm assuming they are talking center close to where the esophagus passes. If that is the case it is possible that it is accessible by a scope.

all I remember is that it is by the aorta, I was so shocked that I thought he said two nodes, but my husband said it is one. I am pretty freaked outvinny3 said:Do you know what they mean by next to the lung? I'm assuming they are talking center close to where the esophagus passes.
