Dear Martin,
After a lung examination I received a note from my Thai doctor, see attachment (editor: not shown on Thailand blog). Can you explain to me what it says?
Regards,
H.

Dear h,
Two spots (nodules) were found in the right lung. The other (old) spots are unchanged.
Control in half a year. F/U CXR means Follow Up Chest X-ray, which is a picture of the lungs. Repeat CT scan in one year.
Did you get a CT scan report?
Doctor Rattiya Cheewakriangkrai is clearly not too concerned.
If the following checks are good, you can forget about this kind of research for the future.
Sincerely,
Dr. Maarten
