I have a hernia I need repaired,when I went in for the pre op exam they took chest xrays ,said there might be something on my lung.They want me to go in for a cat scan to see .I told them I don`t want to,I told them all I want to do is get the hernia fixed.They said if I don`t get the cat scan they won`t clear me for surgery.The thing is if there is something on my lung,and I don`t want surgery can they make me have it?I had a friend that had lung cancer and saw what their fixing it did to him,if I were to have something like that I will take my chances,.and if I die from it at least I won`t go out like my friend did,they carved him up like a turkey and he didn`t have any kind of quality of life.So basically what I`m curious to know if they do find something on my lung,is it possible I can`t get the hernia repaired if I don`t let them do what they want to me?
