    Dear Pablo, The best thing to do is stay on top of your oncologist, push to have the cat scan taken right away. It may be your lungs, but do not worry, the only experience I know is that when my dad had gone through his hodgkins treatment, he had some minor lung toxicity from the chemo, his doctors monitored him very closely, his lungs have recovered well, Don't worry, You will find out soon enough and it will be treated. Lungs have the potential to recover well, if its your lungs.
    Good Luck and hope everything turns out well.
