Get second opinion. If it isn’t growing plan more testing before surgery.

Finding out about an additional mass can feel overwhelming, especially when you're already preparing for surgery. It's completely natural to feel anxious about this news, even though your surgeon has a plan to address both masses during the same procedure. Many patients in this community have faced similar unexpected findings and found strength in connecting with others who understand what you're going through - consider sharing your feelings here as you navigate this journey.
