ian 43 and stupidly smoked but gave up 8-9 years ago. i have had health anxiety for a while now and plod along ok for a while and then bang. last week
i had a cold and had blood streaked phlegm but couldn't tell if from my nose or chest, although wasn't coughing that much. I went to doc who listened to my chest and took bloods. slightly raised crp and neutrophils indication infection and said i could have chest x ray "if i wanted"! not my normal doctor who knows me. so, the cold has cleared up as has the blood and now i'm booked in waiting for an x ray and panicking that my huge trigger lung cancer will be seen, not symptomatic but just there as some are found on routine testers. i had tests a while ago and everyone said oh nothing be found but they found a uterine polyp and a hermangioma on my liver. both benign and dealt with but huge stress t the time. I know bloods don't indicate anything so can't take comfort from that and just in kind panic lose by eating or sleeping , is 43 young for lung cancer? my doctor said never seen it but dr google says different :(
