Question

I'm really anxious about a diagnosis my relative got. It's something called neoplastic etiology with ipsilateral pulmonary pleural metastases and possible mediastinal lymph nodal metastases. Can you explain what all this means and how serious it might be? I'm quite worried and would appreciate any insight.

Question

I've recently noticed a lump in my right breast and saw a doctor, had a scan done, and it showed up in the retro areola region. I was given some medicine, but now I've got swelling and it's really painful. The lump seems to be moving around. What should I do next?

Question

I've been trying to make sense of something after a recent CT scan. It showed a large lymph node mass that's partially encasing some major blood vessels around my kidneys and pancreas. About two years ago, my doctor said it was linked to tuberculosis, so I took medicine for over a year, but the lymph node only got a little bigger. Do you have any idea why that's happening? Also, I've gained about 10kg in just two months and I'm kind of concerned. Is treatment for this really necessary, or should I just leave it as is? Any thoughts on why the weight gain could be happening?

Question

I'm really worried about the possibility of cancer being contagious. Could a pregnant wife get cancer from her husband if he has it? What precautions should she take to ensure her health and the baby's?
