Hi guys,
Need your advice. I have been a smoker for more than 10 years. For the last 1 year i have been putting on weight. Currently i am at 90kg and my height is 182cm. i used to be around 75 - 80kg.
For the past 2 years, i noticed that i am having some symptoms. I noticed that i have hair growing from my palms. This happen many times, but not that often. Only recently, i had 2 strands of hair growing from my thumbs. one from the left and 2 from the right. As i am writting now, i noticed a hair growing from my right thumb.
I have a small node underneath my right armpit. When i press that area, i will be able to feel it hidden underneath my skin. This node has been there for i think 2 years. Recently there is a node behind my left ear. I noticed that when i dip myself in the swimming pool ( cold ) the node will shrink a little. It should be a node as it has been there for quite sometime.
During this time i also have some boil at my testiscles. It will be there for a while, then it dissappears. When i keep pressing it, then there will be blood coming out.
The most recent symptom is that i am having chest pains. i feel like it is my heart that is giving way. when i take deep breath there will be a blockage in the middle. My back, near the should blade areas are stiff. The center of my right feet is really in pain. i can feel it when walking.
These days, i also feel tired. I have been snoring loud.
Any opinion guys?

No one can diagnose cancer just by reading about symptoms.
Go to your Doctor tell him/her all your symptoms, have some tests done and go from there. I wouldnt worry until you have to. But do go checked out.

Hi,
Just to update my condition. Took a full blood work. Waiting for results. Breathing has been better. Less pain. 2 days ago when sleeping, when i sleep on the side my chest was painful. Yesterday was allright. Maybe my lungs or heart got imflamed. Anyhow waiting for the bloodtest. Then would go for an x-ray. I am really scared. Reminds me of my good friend who passed away due to liver cancer at early 30's. May god rest his soul.
Sigh, I just spit out sputum. Got a little blood. Not sure whether it is from the lung or throat. But i noticed that every morning, before i would want to spit out, can feel that there would be blood. I really hope that i would be okay. Pls pray for me guys!!

Hi,
on 1st november 2.00 am, my chest hurt. i got up and prayed. Then i tried to sleep. Unable to as feel pain and uncomfortable. I told myself that i am gonna go to the hospital. At the hospital, i took various test. ECG - came back normal. Did echo, the doctor says it is normal. heart pumping well. They took the test for lung capacity. they say that it is good. I did an xray of my lungs and they told me that it is clear. i showed them the swelling behind my ear, at the cartilage, i am sure it is a lymph node, they say that at the cartilage they are no lymph nodes.They say, probably it is a cyst. They ask me if i vomited, i said that i can taste the vomit soemtimes, as i try to force out the flam.So they are treating me for gastric.
But today when i woke up, i found that behind my ear, there is another lump. Also at the cartilage. What the hell is going on?? I walked a short distance today, little fast, and i start to be short of breath!! so what is this?? lung cancer? stomach cancer? heart problem? psychological problem??

CALM DOWN......
You have had chest x rays which would almost definetely show any abnormalities on your lungs, the lumps maybe just cysts, i had two in close proximatey on my back, and even if they were lymph nodes, they come up when you are under stress and your body is feeling the strain too.
Your bloods are ok, so you can do a couple of things. Either go back to your Doctor, tell him you still dont feel too good, and that you want further tests. Or you can go back and ask him to refer you to a councelor, im thinking you have gotten yourself into a state about this, and maybe you should be looking down the pyscological route. Anxiety can cause some weird physical sensations.
What did they say about blood in your spit?

I didn't tell the doctor regarding the blood in the sputum as it is a small streak of blood. Usually, i can taste the blood when my throat is dry especially in the morning. Do u think it is a concern?
Also i got my bloodwork report today, it shows taht i may have a problem with my heart. My good cholestrol is low and bad cholestrol is high. i took a test called HOMOCYSTEINE and the result is at borderline. SGOT,SGPT,GGT all are at the high side.
Now, my throat starts to itch, makes me cough a lot. Don't know whether this would be a symptom of lung cancer. Also is the doctor right??? that there is no lympth nodes at the back of the ear, at the cartilage? I could feel 2 lumps now at the back of my ear just on top of the earlobe. How do u differentiate a cyst and a lympth node?

I had a cyst on my earlobe once, i dont think you would have a lymph node there.
As for itchy throat i dont think its a sign of lung cancer at all. More like an allergy of some sort, which may be scratching the back of your throat causing the bleeding.
I do think you need to go to maybe a different Doctor and get a second opinion on the bleeding from your throat though. It prob is nothing serious but always wise to check out any sort of bleeding.
Have you a persistant bad cough, bad chest, coughing UP blood that is tarry and dark? are you losing weight? im thinking these are symptoms of lung cancer, my Grandad had it and had terrible back pain also, so im not seeing you tell us of those symptoms, so please try not to worry. Just go back and be firm about doing some more tests with the throat.
Also there isnt anything wrong with your heart if you have high cholesterol !!! its a different thing, and something that can be brought under control. I'm sure your heart is healthy.
After all this is sorted out you need to seek some pysological help, as you seem to blow these ailments out of proportion, and thats the un healthy bit!!
Keep us posted. :)

I am just dissapointed with myself. I let myself get into this kinda of things. Should not have smoked.
Guys, i need all of your advice and expertise.
As you all have read my condition, what do i have?? What is the problem?? Saw a doctor today, he is giving me something to reduce my cholestrol. i have breathing difficulties. I am not sure whether i am ok, but i always yawn and feel sleepy. I tend to close my eyes now and then even at work. Like i am so tired. Fatique. Yesterday when i was at the mall, took a short walk, suddenly felt weak and tired. Then, when i reached my condominium, i took 17 floors of staircase. Was breathing heavily/panting, but feel good after the sweat came out. On the other hand, i took sometime to recover. It is like when i had chestpains, the next day i went swimming, felt my lungs to be clear. but when i rest at home on the sofa, my chest tightens.
I started coughing 3 days ago. Feel like my throat itches. I spit out phelgm, brown colour. its liek a dot or something.. I brought it to the doctor. The doctor could not comment much.
When i start to talk to people, i seem to have less energy. The breath to speak has deteriorated. When i told the doctor all this, he relates it to the heart. Needs the stress test to confirm. The question, why is he relating to the heart alone? How about lung cancer??? I an terrified with this. Is this muscle pull? heart problem? Just took my xray on 1st november. The doctors says that it is clear. So what am i having???
Now they are treating me for acid reflux. How can it be acid reflux if i am out of breath everyday?? Gosh so unsure of what's the problem wif me. Honestly, Can this be the beggining of lung cancer??meaning probably stage 1?? help me!!

I tried to advise you a bit. Not sure you want to hear it though.
Go back to the Doctor insist on more tests, tell him about the coughing up of blood. Then ask him about some councelling. I think you are suffering from anxiety, which needs some help.

I know that i am feeling worried. But if i am feeling better than i need not worry too much. But things are becoming worst. Yesterday, when to see a doctor, he gave me medicine for asid reflux and medicine to bring down cholestrol. I told him that i am beginning to have a slight cough. My throat will be itchy, then i need to cough. he gave me cough mixture. At night, when i ate the medicine, i particularly felt that the cough syrup was quite strong. Anyways, later on, i started to cough, when i spitted out, i saw blood. Of course the spit is more than the blood, and now i am worried. So i tried to force more phelgm out, but each time i spitted out there was no blood. I went to sleep after that. In the middle of the night, i coughed like crazy. I noticed that i cough more at night. My first spit again contained blood. Then my others did not. I tried to cool my thoughts by thinking that there must be sore on my throat as i cough alot and pressured my throat to spit out more phelgm. But as i swallowed, i could not feel the sore on my throat. In the morning, when i woke up, i could feel that my throat was very dry. And as i swallowed slowly, i noticed taht there is a slight sting and i feel a slighty soreness.
Worry bucket, u told me to go to see the doctor for more tests. What kind of tests??? how to differentiate blood from the throat and lungs? Thats why i keep asking whether is this the early signs of lung, or throat or esofagus cancer?? When i used the symptom checker, when u click on the chest, strenum, there are options. they asked whether the chest pain is stabbing/sharp or dull/aching. If i put it as dull/aching, one of the cause could be esofagus cancer. So, the question how to differentiate sharp/stabbing pain and dull/aching pain?

STOP looking on the internet for your symptoms. It's the worse thing you can do if you worry about illness.
Listen to your doctor, they wouldnt dismiss you if they thought you had all the cancers you think you have. GO BACK and talk to the Doctor, tell him/her that you are worrying 24/7 and that you cant go about your every day life as its consuming you.
I still think theres not much wrong with you medically, and a lot of these symptoms are typical of anxiety. If the Doc does the tests and tells you there is no cancer, you need to set about getting yourself back on track pyschologically.
Its help with Anxiety you need, and probably npt cancer. Dont wait any longer, make that appointment and alleviate your fears.
Keep us posted, and DO IT !!

i understand what you are trying to tell me. Today i went to a ear,nose and throat specialist. I told him about all of this. Especially the blood from my cough yesterday. He checked me thouroughly. Checked my throat and he told me that there are no wounds. He checked my nose and he told me that since i frequently get nose bleeds, he told me that this is the trail, flowed to my throat. The last nose bleed i got was 3 days ago i think. Anyhow, he has given me medicine to treat my nose and he says that in 2 weeks if i still cough blood, he told me to get a ct scan to rule out the lungs issue. so, now i am just gonna relax and let time pass. I asked him about my brownish phelgm, he told me it is a smokers phelgm. Coz my lungs are stain. Yes,i do have smokers cough every morning, just that i didn't realize it. He told me not to force the phelgm out, as it may brake blood vessels in the throat. so i ask him whether taht wound can be seen?? he said no. Probably soreness i feel every morning is it. Thats all for the update.

You see Heartbeat !!
There is a logical explanation for your bleeding throat. these Doctors are specialists in their felid, they know what they are talking about, and rarely make mistakes, so put your trust in him, and have some faith ok?
As for the scan, let the time come, try not to panic or worry, and calmly have it done and make decisions after you get the result.
But seriously ...in the mean time, have some councelling for your acute anxiety, when you get better with that, you will find you wont worry half as much about illnesses. Trust me i know, i was the same for years. Im a lot better now but i still worry a little, if its in your make up you cant change. But anxiety councelling will make it a whole lot better, really.
BE HAPPY :)

Well if you do have lung cancer (which you dont , i'm sure). Then you are going to have to face it sooner or later.
You could have a CT scan to put your mind at rest, but if you have to pay a lot of money for it, it will be a waste of money I fear.
The Doctor would have said he wanted you to have the CT scan if he felt it necessary. But if thats all thats going to relax you then go for it. Have it done, and stop putting yourself through this hell.
Let us know what you decide.

Christine73,
The reason i feel that it is cancer is because i am a smoker. Of course i am terrified. So naturally i am thinking that i wouldbe getting cancer. Furthermore, it need not take much for me to get breathless. Acid reflux won't get me breathless right? These days i am doing some exercise, walking and climbing steps. I am able to climb 20 floors at my condominium. When i am exercising, i can feel that when i take a deep breath, there will be a slight strain or pain at the center, just below the diafram/ribs (not sure how to spell that). sometimes i get slight pain/strain at my lower right ribs, soemtimes at upper left chest. so because of this, i will always think it is my lungs.

But seriously, i just don't feel well. I am still coughing, not as bad as previously. Still under medication.

Hi,
I am really not sure what is going on, but i am gonna lose my gf soon. The problem is that i keep telling her my condition. The most reason thing that happen is that i went for a massage yesterday. The girl who massage me saw me that i was touching my chest as it was uncomfortable. she volunteered to massage my chest. It was a bit painful when she did it. At the end i was breathing better. when i breath in and out there is now no strains. She told me that my veins at my chest is very thight, hence is causing my lungs to have problem. She massaged my chest as i was facing upward. then she massaged my back to ease my breathing. As i was facing downward for that few minutes, i suddenly feel there is flam at my throat and when i cough it out it contained a little blood. What the hell is going on??? What should i do now??

update: Since i went for the massage, i noticed that when i take a deep breath, there is no longer any pain at the center underneath the diafram. i noticed that when i slept yesterday night, breathing has been easier with 2 pillows rather than one. the strenum is painful only when i start to press it. But the pain has been lesser compared to yesterday. I believe that is a muscular pain. Based on this, i believe that i am getting better. However, now at the back of my ear, not at the cartilage this time, at my right ear, i noticed a small little bumb that is about to grow. i sure hope that it is not a lympth node. i sure hope that it don't grow. Flame has been very less. cough has stopped. everynight i have been sweating excessively especially when i don't put on the fan. Also yesterday, when i was trying out some coats, i became breathless/tired fast. it is like i am strectching my lungs. is this symptoms funny? am i better or not??

There are a few days of which there is blood from my spit. When i spit on to a tissue, there is like a dot of blood(pin needle size). The days are on the 10,11,12,15. I still believe that the blood is from my throat especially when i force the phelgm. I feel like there is a wound in my throat but the doctor says otherwise. There is a small node growing from the back of my ear, will confirm with the specialist whether it is a lympth node or not. The worrying thing is that, as i was sleeping yesterday night, i suddenly feel chest pains on my right. Noticing this, i relaxed awhile and try to find out the source of pain. I found out that it is highly likely a muscular pain. Then the pain moved to the right, again i believe it is a muscular pain. Also there is a shortness of breath, it is like as i wanna take deep breath, i feel the chest is heavy. Also as this happen, i feel both my hands numb. pin and needle feeling. This afternoon, i felt the same things, except the muscular pains. I also feel like i wanna get sore throat every single day. Also, when i was taking a nap, i dreamt 3 times that i coughed blood. Each time more blood. I just hope that it would not be a de ja vu, as i have any many de ja vu's before. Also i notice that i cannot sleep in an airconditioned room anymore. I just feel very cold. Even the fan blowing a little fast, i will feel chilled. I am more comfortable when i don't on the fan. Sweating it out. The pain at the strenum is still there when i press, but it is lesser. probably due to the girl massaging me the other day. Is there really something wrong with me? What can i do to feel better? Pls, i need advice!!

I am curious why will you not go and see a doctor to rule out anything serious
is it the fear that something will be found?
it would seem you are stressing so much about it being something serious i wouldnt be surprised if you have given yourself some kind of ulcer or stress angxiety problem
i would seriously recommend you see someone at least a proper professional who can help in many different ways ? what is there to loose ;)

i have seen doctors and medical officers. i took an x-ray, a chest/lung ct scan. I can;t be taking a scan for esofagus as well now as i have done the above. When i got my chest pain, The first doctor told me that my x-ray is clear. he did an echo for me, he says that my heart is beating well. He treated me on acid reflux and probably my strenum is inflammed. When he did the echo for me, he really pressed the center of my strenum and it really hurts. This was done after 1 week of chest pains. Could not take it anymore and went to see the first doctor. My 2nd doctor appointment was nothing to shout about. There was discomfort when i breath in. The air breathed in feels like stuck in the cenetr of teh strenum. pain was now below the diafram, corresponds to acid reflux. Then i suddenly spit out blood. That is where i got terrified and gone to see an ear,nose and throat specilist. He mentioned that there are no growth in my ear, nose and throat. He looked in my throat and told me that there are no wounds/injury. Therefore he concluded that the blood is from my nose as he told me that my nose is fragile. 4 days later , i spit out phelgm. i saw 2 dots of blood around the phlegm. I got terrified and did a ct scan. The specialist told me that the ct scan is not needed. I still did it to see whether i did have lung caner or not? the result was good. everything from thethorax is clear. i was happy, then the following day there is a dot of blood. the dates are 10,11,12,13,15,17,18 of november. All this dates there are only dots of blood. 1 dot of blood per day. After i went for a massage, the pain under the diafram was gone. Now my strenum is less painful, as i feel that the muscular pain is reducing. Breathing has been better. When i sleep with a pillow yesteday, suddenly i felt like i couldn;t get enough air into my lungs, like my lungs has been congested.But now when i take deep breath, it is comfortable. No pains wat so ever. The complains that i am having now apart from the 1 drop of blood is that my back shoulder blade and neck has been rather stiff. i feel very sleepy throughout the day. Yawning as i work ans so on. Even driving i feel like wanna doze off. As i begin to try to convince myself taht i am healthy, there is a small little growth at teh back of my right ear. My mom says it is pimple, i feel it is a lympth node. Sometimes when i sleep, i feel pin and needles in my hands. Not only the arms but the arm. Both hands. Sometimes my feet also feel it.
What further test should i go for? what specialist should i see?

Hi heartbeat 3, I understand your anxiety. I had breast cancer in 2006 and now every time something happens my first thought is recurrence. I have especiallybeen worried because I have had cough for a year and a half now, lots of test and different drugs and nothing seems to be working. I had a ct of the chest and it showed that I have a lung nodule, I go back soon for another ct to be sure that the nodule isn't growing. But anyway the reason I'm posting is this, have you been tested for asthma, emphysema, or bronchitis? I have asthma (and the doctors think chronic bronchitis) but a lot of the symptoms you are asking about are some of the same ones I put with everyday. When my asthma is flaring it gives me a bad backache in the shoulders and inbetween. Just a suggestion. But think about it and good luck

rabbit 8163, if i were to have a chronic bronchitis, can't it bee seen from the xray and ct scan? secondly, what are the symptoms that you are facing that is similiar to mine? thirdly, will bronchitis lead to lung cancer?
rabbit8163
11-19-2008, 09:35 AM
I'm not sure about being seen on ct, the doctor did a broncoscopy to diagnose my chronic bronchitis. the symptoms that I am referring to are the things like back pain, tight chest, heavy chest, and breathlessness. Look up the symptoms on these three diseases and see if it fits. I don't think bronchitis leads to lung cancer but I'm not a doctor.

i am curious as to why people would rather draw a possible serious illness out instead of going for extensive tests to rule this out?
is there something underlying that causes these people to draw a problem out as in scared or unaware of how to or is it an attention thing?
of course nameless but some people on the site may have actual medical training some obviously dont however no doctor will offer to treat or diagnose online simply because of the many variables that can happen in the medical world due to miss information and simply not being able to see the diagnosis in person
sometimes the best thing to do for long underlying illness is to bite the bullett so to speak and go book into either a hospital or dr's office and get many extensive tests it realy is the only way to know

Heartbeat,
I gave up answering your posts a while ago because everything i advised you didnt seem to sink in. Like the last poster said, there is no point worrying and not doing anything about it, you need to go to a Doctor tell him your worries and insist on being checked from head to toe if you have to. Then if the Doc says nothing wrong you need to get some pyschiatric help as i think you are suffering from severe anxiety. I hope you sort it all out. Good luck

I did everything that i am asked to do. I did an x-ray on the 1/11/08. i did a ct scan on 10/11/08. i will be doing a stress test on 18/12/08. i did a test to see how much oxygen in the lungs on 1/11/08. Everything ok. I recently found out that there is another test to do, lung capacity test, do determine whether i do have lung desease. The stress test will determine whether it is a heart desease. i also read online that aching at the chest wall, means there is a possibility of tumour at the ribs. when i did the ct scan there was no pain at chest walls. Only now, slight strains. After i went for accupunture, the person pressed on the pressure points, now the pain is so much lesser. The question, what u guys think i am having? i feel that i have a problem with the lung bcoz it started with me smoking too much, then my lung just feel heavy. Then chest pains started. In the centre.It was so pain that i slept on my chest and i can feel my heart beating really hard. I can even hear my heartbeat. Of course, my condition now is much better than 44 days ago. I still don't understand, i can walk up 20 floors at my condominium, but when i run a little, i feel that my lungs is shaking. i am really fragile now. Previously, after the chest pain, i could not sleep on the side, now it is better. i could sleep on the sides, but not too long. i could feel stress or maybe it is the mind that is talking. Can it be that the tumour is now growing after i done the ct scan?? whats the odds of that happening? must be pretty unlucky then.

I have had my fair share of dealing with lung cancer, there is not one symptom that you described that would point to lung cancer. Especially the weight gain, unexplained weight loss is a different issue. I think you have a anxiety problem, you might want to see a doctor about your anxiety about being very ill. I think this anxiety is giving you symptoms of different problems. I however am not a doctor.

chaz50, the weight gain has started a few years ago. coz i was overeating. Now, i can say that i am eating, but not normally. Sometimes just enuff, sometimes slightly more. Chaz50, you are saying that my symptoms are not of lung cancer?? i am having difficulty taking deep breath. My left rib has been aching. In the centre of the sternum, i am having discomfort.always need to move my chest in order to loosen it up and feel better. last 3 days my throat again started to become sore. started to have cough from yesterday. I notice that my nose these few days gets blocked easily, makes it even difficult to breath. Especially when i sleep, the mucus is like flowing to my throat, makes it itchy and forcing me to cough. I just had cough last month for 14 days from the 2/11/08. Yesterday, i was sweating at night. i also have tightness at my chest.Both my arms were numb and had this pin-needle feeling. i can feel that my heart was beating hard like last time on the 25/10/08 minus the chest pains. I did my ct scan and xray, came out clear. If i would have cancer or any other lung decease it can be seen right? Chaz50, pls read carefully all my post again, and let me know what are the symptoms of cancer and those which are not in that category. Pls help me chaz50, i need info. Pls do this for me. god bless you. i am really in need of help.

I cough more at night i think. i hope this is not the start of lung cancer. Yes i am very scared and worried. i am full of anxiety, but if i don't have these symptoms, who would be worried? i've got no one to talk to. My gf's breaking up with me.

it is not anxiety only. it is bcoz of what i am feeling hence i feel stressed. for instance, everynight i sleep well, then when it comes to early mornings, maybe 5am, i start to feel discomfort in my chest, and then i can't sleep.i usually sleep at about 12am to 1 am.
yesterday, when i was out with my family, as i was laughing, talking, suddenly feel tired. then i just stopped talking. all this can't be anxiety. what else can i say? basically i am recording here my encounters, so that if i am diagnosed with lung cancer, then you guys will know how it started!!

Ok Heartbeat3, You sound alot like me only you are just verbalizing it here. ALOT of us have the same fears that you do. We really do! That is why we come to these healthboards. You have got to calm down. Catch your breath. You have yourself worked up into a frenzy. I spent half of my day here reading the boards because I have had phlegm in my throat and feel like I can't get a full breath in. Then it sends me into a panic mode. I sit and think "what if I have lung cancer?" (and I am non smoker) or what if I have cancer of the throat? (and I am a singer) It drives me insane living in the "what if" thinking mode.
My husband said to me today that he thinks I need counseling for my panic and anxiety disorder. I agree and am going to find a counselor. I don't know what is causing my severe FEAR and anxiey. But I will be proactive about it and do something about it. Otherwise the fear and BODY SYMPTOMS will escalate. That could be happening to you. I understand your fears. Believe me I do!!! I live in that world too. I fear I am going to get lung cancer because I spent 8 years as a waitress exposed to second hand smoke. And I have gone into casino's and had smokers blow their smoke at me. One of my dear friends died years ago of lung cancer. He never smoked a day in his life. It's so unfair!
Anyhow..all this to say I am not a doctor but I would be willing to bet you have 2 things going on that are just like mine and you should seek help for. Do both!! One...find a counselor to help you deal with your fears and anxiety. and Two...I bet you have acid reflux. Which I do and have scheduled an endoscopy. (where they put a camera down my throat) I am scared to death. But I want to know whats going on. Unfortunately I think I have acid reflux from all the stress in my life. I am on the verge of losing my house due to the bad economy. I don't like my job and I am unhappy with my life right now. I have alot on my plate and my health is suffering. So I realize I NEED HELP!! I am going to get it.
Until you realize that you can't do this on your own you won't get much better. You may be spinning your wheels just coming on here and talking. I love having someone to talk to on here too. It helps me ALOT! But you have to do things on your own to fix the problem. See each doctor that you need to. But I can DEFINATELY tell you have major anxiety like me. Please get help. I know your symptoms give you the anxiety, me too. Big time. But get help for both.
I am here for you anytime you want to talk! Take care! Hugs and prayers:angel:

hi, tq for talking to me. i really hope it is anxiety, but i don't think so. I am really having problem breathing. Not only at times breathless and tired. For instance, many times yesterday, i have this problem. My back hurts alot, upper back, center back, lower back and the back of the ribs at the side. Yesterday when i try to take many deep breaths, i noticed that my sides of the ribs from the back hurts, This is really a symptom of lung cancer right? i try to be positive all the time, but the back pains are killing me. the inability to breathe properly is worrying me. Acid reflux don;t cause pains to the ribs especially the back right? i took a ct scan on the 10/11/08, at that time, i don;t have this kinda pains. The only problem at that time was i was breathless and lungs congested, now the feelings of lungs congested has reduced. Breathlessness depends, it will occur on and off and it comes together with the tighness of the chest. Thats what i have been asking everybody in this forum, could this be the start of lung cancer whereby tumour starts to grow. Maybe the tumour cannot be seen yet, probably can be detected maybe 6 months after my ct scan was done. Those who have dealt with lung cancer, do u see similiarities of my symptoms??? pls help.

hey guys,
to tell you honestly, i am feeling better in terms of my breathing. As i take a deep breath, i still have that slight discomfort at my bone i.e. like something stuck at the left part of my chest. but i don' t rally get tired anymore by talking. Yesterday i felt this way, and i hope that it gets better. But, yesterday, i told my family that i am cold, even took a sweater to use when they say that it is hot. I felt cold the whole day, started with the breeze in my condominium, air-conditioning in my office and air-conditioning at my mom's place. As i tell them i was cold, my gf says that i am sweating. my chest and back, she could feel sweat!! Is this a problem? could this mean lung infection? could this mean immune system is down? Also another concern, on the 29/12/08, was on a treadmill. Able to walk at speed 6.0 for 40 minutes, then speed 6.5 for about 20 minutes. On 30/12/08, i was only walking at speed 5.0 for half hour. half way thru was already tired. Wat is the problem now?? One minute i feel better in a way but the other minute another thing goes wrong? Also, for my lung infection to be healing so slowly, can this be the start of lung cancer?? is this a sign?? pls reply. Also i think i feel less anxiety.

just checking, i notice at my diafram, the right side bone is bigger than my left. when i see at the mirror it looks like a swelling. only thing is that there is no pain. didn't notice this before. is this normal? is it a tumour growing thats why it is pushing the bone out? my ct scan was on 10/11/08. i notice this earlier, thats why wanna check with u!!
