[|Human|] Good morning Doctor.  My mother was just admitted to the hospital after complaining of sharp pains in what she thought was near her liver.  It hurts during breathing.  Turns out the doctor did an x-ray and blood test and says he can see a spot on her lung and that her blood has thickening.  Mom is 70, never smoked (although my father did for 15 years of their marriage but stopped 20 years ago), she has diabetes (takes a very minimum amount of inseline) and high blood pressure but otherwise is at her optimal weight and in good health.  This is new and she isnt a complainer so we are all worried.  We cant seem to get a straight answer. Any ideas for us or questions to ask?
[|AI|]  Hi and thank you for choosing Chat Doctor to post your question. I read carefully your question and understand your concern. My opinion as a chest physician is as follows:Chest pain that is related with breathing suggest a pleuritic chest pain. This pleuritic chest pain makes me thing that the spot in the lung is near to pleural surface. In the setting of blood thickening, that lung spot it can be a possible pulmonary infarction due to peripheral pulmonary embolism. Other differential diagnosis of chest pain and lung spot are also possible so if I was her treating doctor I would suggest a thorax CT scan with intravenous contrast to differentiate the nature of the lung spot and decide for the appropriate treatment. I hope my opinion can be helpful. Kind regards Chat Doctor.
