My doctor found a shadow on my liver in an ultrasound. Im scheduled for a ct scan on Monday and a follow up doctor appointment Friday. However, should this wait? What if Im exposed to covid by going to the dr. On the other hand what if I have cancer and should be seen....what would you recommend?

Continue normal medical care unless advised otherwise by your doctor
My dad is a domestic US pilot, and he's going to be in my city this week. Would it be a bad idea to still meet up (in a non-public place)? I'm 24, he's 55, we're both currently healthy - as far as we know - without any comorbidities. Feeling like I should cancel but I really want to see him.
If youre both free of symptoms you can certainly see one another. Large gatherings or unnecessary social contact for those at high risk (elderly, co-morbidities) should be avoided. As always follow your local guidance.
