Hello Anon

Thank you for writing.

Lung nodules on the lungs can be cancerous or benign. A biopsy will need to be done to know what kind you have. I can't say why a biopsy is not being done - perhaps the nodules are tiny and your doctor is waiting for four months to see if they change. Please address this four month wait with your doctor.
Best,
Susan
