Interesting you would say that, Steve. Had a lower abdomen CT that
showed a 5mm nodule on my right lung. NP and my PCP ordered a full
CT of my lungs. Insurance denied it because they only allow the scan
of any organ every 6 months. The scan only showed my lower lungs,
not my upper lungs. So I wait my 6 months and then have it
reordered. Go figure.<br>

About 5 years ago I had a low dose lung CT scan. It showed a
spot here and there. Up to CMH - OSU Med Center for a biopsy.
Calcified Granuloma. Still need check on it. Intake nurse at OSU
started on a questionnaire / checklist. I stopped her and Said
- "check all the boxes". Been there - done that on all of them.

<div dir="ltr">My father started spraying corn fields and fence
rows with 2-4-D in the 1940's right after WW-II. DDT in
the milking barn was a daily thing. They bought this farm in
1951 and it was massively overgrown with Honey Locust thorn
trees. You know, the kind with "giant" thorns.
<div>I spent a lot of years spraying all manner of stuff and
my father was not very safety minded when it came to
spraying. Of course neither was the government back then. My
father used to preach at me that it was required that the
spray mix HAD to run off of every leaf of every plant.</div>
<div>About 10 years ago my Doctor moved away and we had to
find a new one. She sat me down and asked a thousand
questions, knowing that I was a farmer, and made big list of
all of the things I had been exposed to. Then she put me on
a sort of an automatic list I guess pretty much saying that
I had a very high probability of cancer. So far so good,
still in the clear.</div>
<div>By age 11 I was spraying agent orange (mix of 2-4-D,
2-4-5-T and stove oil) all summer long using a three gallon
metal hand sprayer, spraying all kinds of brush and
especially those Honey Locust about 4 to 5 feet up the
trunks. We sprayed all of our corn with 2-4-D at "lay-by".
By the time I was about 14 I was doing about all of the
spraying. I can't begin to name all of the stuff I sprayed
over the years, mostly typical corn belt chemicals as they
came along. Lasso, Treflan, Atrazine, 2-4-D-B, many others
and of course Round-up... I still use Round-up and 2-4-D but
I'm pretty conservative with them.</div>
<div>During those years I also worked with a fair amount of
asbestos, sawing, drilling and nailing it as well as
removing it from several structures (before modern
restrictions).</div>
<div>When Diana and I got married I worked for a number of
years I worked in a plastics plant and constantly worked
with a bunch of kind of scary solvents with big warning
labels that the company didn't take very seriously...</div>
<div>Then we owned a store and added a shoe repair shop (an
old family trade) and for 20 years I worked daily in a cloud
of quite squirrley adhesives, solvents and thinners.</div>
<div>Every time I go see the doctor she asks the same batch of
questions making sure nothing is going wrong. That and
checking me for any indications of our family curse. Of my
parents and my sister and myself I am the only one that has
not been diagnosed with Altzheimers... They are all gone
now... Both my mother and my sister died from it. My father
had it pretty bad but congestive heart failure killed him
first.</div>
<div>Like I said, "so far so good". At 78 I'm still passing
all of my tests. :-) <br clear="all">
