pain in the back of my lungs?

[Sissy29]

A few months ago I had a chest xray done because I had a swollen lymph node and they found scar tissue in my lungs. The doctor told me not to worry about it because it could be from medication I was taking for rheumatoid arthritis or chemicals I have inhaled. (By the way, I am 30 years old.) But last month I started having short sharp pain in my back lung. I had another xray today and will get the results on Friday. I am scared to death!! Is that a symptom of lung cancer?? I don't have a cough or any congestion. I know most people,I think, develop a cough. Please let me know if that is a symptom. The craziest thing is that I lay in bed everynight thinking of my 7&10 year old and how I am gonna stop smoking but in the morning I am right back at it. I really tick my self off! Please help if you can offer any answers. thanks!

My dad had similar pain in his back, under his shoulder blade. After being on Oxicotin, he decided to go to a chiropractor who discover his back was out of alignment.

I hope you test goes well. You might want to consider a chiropractor.

Good luck!!

I am very sorry about your loss. How long did your mother have this back pain?
