Cause of multiple lung nodules
My mother used to feed pigeons daily and give water to them and they used to poop on her balcony for 1 whole year.. We have stopped now..
Can this cause the lunge nodule? Because last year there was just fibrosis on her CT scan but this year there is lung nodules largest measuring 9mm.. I have attached the CT report here..
Please do tell what caused this? Did feeding the bird in her room balcony cause it? Please help

Broncoscopy needle coughing afterwards
My 67 year mother got broncoscopy done in which biopsy sample was collected niddle one, I think..
After that she had sore throat which is gone now but now on 2nd day her chest feels heavy and she is coughing a little more and this coughing is not dry.. while coughing her ribs are paining..
Before this test, she was absolutely fine just some dry cough.. Is this normal or worrisome?
Can she continue using her CPAP from today in this condition?
I'm scared.. till how long after this procedure, she can get side effects lyk this? When will she be in safe zone? Please Please reply

Pet Scan radiation
In CT scan soft tissue attenuation and lung nodules were found..
When the doctor already did a Broncoscopy in which biopsy sample was taken.. Then why did he ask us to do a Pet Scan also? My 67 yrs old mother is afraid of it.. Are pet scans safe as they have a lot of radiation? My mom already has had 3 CT scan in the last two years.. Is this much radiation safe? Isn't biopsy report enough?

Chest CT scan report
My uncle(60 yrs) having mild fever irregularly and suffered weight loss as well. Has smoking history. AFB report is negative, however chest CT scan says -
1. few enhancing nodular areas of consolidation with speculated margins, some showing central necrosis and adjacent fibrotic pleuroparenchymal bands in basal segments of bilateral lungs. The presence of the lesions is more likely to favour an infectious process like TB, however neoplastic cause cannot be entirely ruled out without biopsy.
2. Few subcentrimetric nodular lesions in the posterior segment of right upper lobe and inferior lingular segments of left upper lobe.
3. Mediastinal lymphadenopathy
is something very serious?
