It also says there is mild apical pleural thickening on the left --NO INFILTRATES ARE SEEN. mY AGE IS 49 AND i ALSO HAVE FIBROMYALGIA AND MIXED CONNECTIVE TISSUE DISEASE. Please help - No one seems to want to answer my question.

Resepcted user, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly.
*Nodule in internal organ is due to inflammation occuring due to infection or
an autoimmune reaction which occurs when your body overreacts to its
own tissues.
*This lung nodule by enlarge correlates with underlying connective tissue
disease and autoimmune reaction, requires confirmation through CT Scan
guided biopsy of it.
Hope this clears your doubts.
Thanks for using Health care magic & reviewing my answer.
Wishing you happy healthy life ahead.
