I am not sure if someone here can help me out with my question, but I am hopeing that I may get valuable info. I am in the progress of lodging my 186 visa (permanent resident visa). However, just two months ago, I found two GGOs (ground-glass nodule) in my lung during a regular health check and the doctor suggested that I removed those GGOs. The pathological result indicated that those two GGOs were Stage 0 of lung cancer which was called AIS (Adenocarcinoma in situ). As AIS is categorized as precancerous lesion according to the new WHO classification, I am technically cured. No follow-up treatment is required. My doctor told me that AIS has a great prognosis, with 100% 5 year survival rate.
However, I am still worried that I may fail the health examination and the Visa Officer may refuse my application. I am 100% certain that my health condition will be assessed by MOC, but I am just not quite confident that MOC has the expertise to evaluate my condition. A chest surgeon may know what AIS (Adenocarcinoma in situ) is, but I am not sure whether a MOC has the capability to evaluate.
Therefore, I wonder:
-As the pathological result indicates that those two GGOs are AIS, ( precancerous lesion), technically speakding, the are pre-cancer. So, the MOC should not caculate the potential cost of healthcare based on the "Notes for guildance" for lung cancer, right ?
-Is there anything I can do at this point to help ? For example, by providing medical evidence that AIS does not require further treatment and the 5 year prognosis is 100% ?
Thank you
