What foods should I eat to help strengthen my immune system after ASPS sarcoma surgery I'm worried about recovery and want to make sure I'm doing everything right to stay healthy
Fats (nuts, oils, fish) Especially following surgery, healthy fat helps your body absorb all those yummy vitamins you are getting from your fruits and veggies. Fat is essential for strengthening your immune system and decreasing your chance of infection.

I'm a bit worried after my recent chest X-ray. It showed this opacity in the right lower zone, so they did a CT thorax with contrast. The results showed a well-defined, heterogeneously enhancing lobulated mass in the anterior mediastinum on the right side, around 6.6x5.3x6.5cm. It seems to be involving the prevascular space, but thankfully, there arent any changes in the surrounding lung parenchyma. They mentioned it could be either a lymph nodal mass or a thymoma. Could you help me understand what this might mean and what the possible next steps could be?
