Avatar f tn Lung granulomas typically means clumps of chronically inflamed tissue due to fungal or bacterial infection or can be caused due to a foreign body in the lung, irritation of the lung tissue, etc. Do you know if it is calcified or not? Granulomas are not cancer. https://www.healthline.com/health/lung-granuloma Your bra should not interfere with the test. We wish you the best.
Avatar n tn He said that and I about fell off the chair. Could the pain be related to lung cancer? Breathing never laboured, no coughing up blood. Though I am tired all the time and have gained a little weight over the past year...
5536886 tn?1455827346 Was put the next morning in the hospital to slowly drain the fluid around his lung. Well who would think that a headache is a sign of lung cancer. Shortness of breath is a nother sign. Cough is also a sign.
349465 tn?1289081764 Teresa, I now have lung involvement and my sysptoms are wheezing not so much coughing, shortness of breath, some caughing up blood. I had 11 radiation treatments to shrink the tumors on my lungs and it seems to work for a couple of months but now the same symptoms have come back. I go to see a lung specialist on Friday.
Avatar n tn To make a long story short, 6 mos later, after an MRI less than a month before, he all of a sudden had lung cancer, lymph node cancer, 2 brain tumors, and bone cancer. Gee, it metastasized in under a month to all of those places? I don't think so. He died in 12 weeks. Please be aggressive in treating this spot. Better safe than sorry.
Avatar n tn Had upper right lobe removed Nov 2007 due to stage 1 cancer. All pet scans are clear and x-rays clear still I have a cough that sometimes is that of a heavy smoker. Coughing brings up clear mucus. Other than this cough I feel great. Any suggestions on how to take care of the cough?
Avatar n tn The various causes of hemoptysis in adults are bronchitis, bronchiectasis, TB, necrotizing pneumonia, primary lung cancer. Massive hemoptysis common causes are bronchiectasis, tuberculous and other pneumonias and bronchogenic carcinoma. Dizziness could be due to blood loss causing hypotension. This needs to be investigated immediately by a pulmonologist since it could be serious. Management would depend on the diagnosis. Take care.

Avatar f tn could it be anything other then cancer in my lung, my family has a history of lung cancer, and I quit smoking in 2001. could the pain in my butt be related to the nodule in my lung? could the kidney be affected? please tell me it's probably nothing more then a cyst.. I'm 54 years old and already went through the grind.. I'm a postive person, but still quite frightened at the prospect of having to go though it all again! I appreciate any responses ..
Avatar n tn My friend has been experiencing LUNG pain, coughing up blood and excessive sweating for three years now. The pain is felt every time he breathes and has increased in severity over this time frame, especially when he is resting or trying to sleep at night. He says he feels the pain in his back, on the left side. His skin still has its natural hue. He says he has NO chest pain and no pain in his arm or other extremities. He says it began after a head injury during a tennis match.
500943 tn?1210113003 Falling asleep driving and at my desk at work, edema and weight gain from predisone, I went to a lung specialist. He saved me! From the coughing. I had x-rays taken due to spitting or coughing up blood and wheezing and having a hard time breathing. I had 6 nodules in my lungs, all under 1 inch. I was diagnosed with GERD, and after the antibiotic this time, I continued with Nexium and morning and nite inhaled Advair. It was like magic with the coughing.
Avatar n tn irritation of the throat from violent coughing, blood clot in the lung, bronchiectasis, bronchitis, cancer, cystic fibrosis, inflammation of the blood vessels in the lung, nosebleeds, pneumonia, tuberculosis or inhaling blood into the lungs. Are there any other signs or symptoms present? Chest x-ray, complete blood count and complete medical and physical examination is needed to help with the diagnosis.
Avatar n tn //www.webmd.com/lung-cancer/lobectomy-lung-surgery#1. Generally, your health going into the surgery helps determine if you will have any complications after. Typically though, coughing when talking (and not when silent) is a vocal cord issue. Actually, something to talk to your doctor about as well is Gerd which can cause this phenomenon. When is the last time you have talked to a doctor about this?

Avatar m tn Forgot to mention I've been coughing for 8 weeks now but no blood and my gp said its nothing ??
Avatar m tn m having a follow up xray mid July to ensure that the pneumonia has run its course - which it already has, although I still have diminished lung strength and occasional coughing (phlegm tastes utterly toxic at times - rancid). Now I have had electrical type impulses in my right lung.  Not sore, not unfortable...just a vibration like you would feel on a speaker.
Avatar f tn Hello forum members: I'm concerned because I have noticed that I tend to cough more these days. When I take in a deep breath thru my mouth--it triggers a dry cough. If I take in a deep breath thru my nose--then there is no trigger to cough. It's just breathing via my mouth that does it--mainly on deep breaths. Sometimes, I'll just cough periodically though through-out the day due to a sense of tickle in my chest/throat area that kinda forces me to cough.
Avatar f tn hi , my dad just went throught this same thing, dr did a scan found a place on his lung, said he didnt think it was anything but sent him to a lung dr. they have to do that. he went today . lung dr says he dont think its anything but going to scan him again in 3 months and than again in another 3 months if not changed he will call it a scare from being sick. my dad has had it for 2 years now its not changed at all. try not to worry, its probley just a scare from being sick and coughing alot.
Avatar m tn i have been getting a cat recently too. the cough started about the same time i got him. Is it might be the allergy to cats?
Avatar n tn Hi, Constant blood in sputum in lung cancer can occur if the cancer is advanced, or if early cancer is on or rear the main windpipe (doctors call this "endobronchial" cancer). Most early lung cancers do not result in blood in sputum. Cough may be present in such cases. Relax!
Avatar m tn I had a recent chest x ray done and showed a small lesion on right lung. was told to get ct scan to rule out cancer. I had a very bad flu chest congestion, yellow phelgm, headache. very weak lasted over a week, was hard to breathe coughing, for a few days, short of breath. got better took antibotics. chest x ray was about 10 days after I felt better, Could my lesion be from left over infection, I do have copd.
Avatar m tn 15 a.m. Monday until I went back to my GP at 2:45 Wednesday I could not work, eat, sleep, nothing except scour the internet for statistics, signs, symptoms etc. He offered to do a chest x-ray to ease my mind which I declined because I dont want to ask for tests for things I know are probably in my head. So, he listened to my lungs again and said they were clear. I have no weight loss, no coughing up blood, my chest doesnt hurt, I was fine prior to the cold, etc.
Avatar f tn My friend is currenly in the hospital undergoing multiple diagnostic testing due to unexplained "cavitating lung lesions". Her symptoms include nonproductive, constant coughing. That is to say, only clear mucus is produced upon couighing. Additionally, she has experienced a significant decrease in appetite due to constant nausea. Biopsies have been performed and have come back negative. Test results are also negative for fungal and bacterial infections.
