I am a woman with a breast cancer. I had CT scan recently that showed a node on my adrenal glands, but PET scan I done right after it, showed no other cancer. I wonder if this adrenal node is cause of cancer? I am thinking to visit endocrinologist before I go to the surgery, what do you think?

I think that adrenal glands are unlikely to cause cancer but it is possible for some cancers to spread to the adrenal gland. It is possible that adrenal node is not even related to your cancer. I think you should do biopsy of that node. Talk to your oncologist first.
