Avatar f tn s mom died of lung cancer/lymphoma, as his father, and now my dad has lung cancer. Could this shadowing, mass and lymph nodes be something other than cancer? Where do I go now? Who should I see? Please, please help. Thanks and God Bless everyone.
Avatar m tn hi. lately i've been vomiting while smoking after eating a big meal. at first it feels like i just need to "hack" something up, but then i vomit. i might vomit 4-5 times during the course of 1 cigarette. i'm guessing the smoking has something to do with it. other than that, is this serious? could it be a sign of lung cancer? i'm only 20 but i have been smoking for about 6 years. thank you for any help you can offer.
Avatar n tn little blood came and 5 weeks before, i tried to find out whether some blood is coming from my mouth too, so i did a deep breathe and tried to take the sputum out for 6 times, 7th time when i did deeply some blood came in the sputum, Not sure whether its blood or RED wine which had some 20 minutes before this experience ( but after having RED wine i had my dinner and drank water too).
Avatar f tn Can anyone suggest what this could be....I am just really worried that its lung cancer. Can this occur to someone my age who does not smoke?

634590 tn?1293774093 It can sometimes be difficult to tell the difference between vomiting blood and coughing up blood (from the lung) or a nosebleed. Conditions that cause vomiting blood can also cause blood in the stool. Causes The upper GI tract includes the stomach, mouth, throat, esophagus, and the first part of the small intestine. Blood that is vomited may come from any one of these places.
Avatar f tn Blood in the phlegm, chronic cough, weight loss, pain referred to the back, are just some of the symptoms of Lung cancer. You need a CT scan since very tiny, and hence curable/exciseable lesions, will not show up on an x-ray. Do not delay since early malignant lesions are much surviveable than late findings. Oh, yes, non-smoking women comprise one in three lung cancer findings, and non-smoking women, not even a 2nd-hand smoke exposure, with lung cancer is on the rise.
Avatar n tn No it would not. Do you have lung cancer because if you do maybe your lungs are not functioning at 100% and therefore not getting an adequate ammount of oxygen to your brain which in turn would certainly cause confusion.
Avatar m tn Hello I have smoked black and milds on and off occasionally since last october and i now have been having some pain in my upper body could in be lung cancer ? I dont feel pain when I breather not easily winded no lumps not coughing. cough up phelgm at times but small amount and no blood or anything could it be that or something eles and im not wheezing either .
Avatar m tn The other possibility is that you are coughing up blood. This can be due to bronchitis or pneumonia, lung cancers (especially in smokers), tuberculosis, bronchiectasis, pulmonary embolism, or fungal and other infections. Discuss these possibilities with your doctor. A comprehensive investigation is required keeping all the points in mind. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Avatar n tn My dad was diagnosed with Non small cell lung cancer around july/august of 2008. He had lost his voice and after many tests they determined he had a enlarged lymph node that was pressing on his laryngeal nerve. After numerous tests they found that he had lung cancer no tumors in his lungs. The lymph node was envaded with cancer cells. They staged it as a stage iv because it had metastisized into his abdomen.
Avatar f tn He has starting coughing up quite a bit of blood. His lung dr. told him to take his antibiotics. his nurse told me today that he might need Hospice. No one has told us anything. his lungs sound crappy(thats the extent of what the drs. tell us). His right side-right hand, arm, let and foot are swollen up most of the time. he gets very disoriented which is the one thing that really gets to me. he is dizzy all the time and always falling down. Any suggestions???
Avatar n tn The main effects of exposure to chlorine gas include diseases of the lung and tooth corrosion. People with previous lung disease, smokers, and those with breathing problems are more sensitive to chlorine. Cancer: There is no information currently available about whether chlorine causes cancer. Reproductive Effects: No reproductive effects from chlorine exposure have been reported. In general, chemicals affect the same organ systems in all people who are exposed.
Avatar f tn I have a strong family history of lung cancer in non smokers, I have been a smoker for over thirty years. This is my second bought of pneumonia in a year and a half. Please help me with the ct scan results. FINDINGS: numerous subcentimeter lymph nodes throughout anterior mediastinum and aortopulmonary window. This is a disconcerting configuration, but I can identify no definate lymph node of significant size. No significant pleural or pericardial fluid.
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...
932390 tn?1244542446 My father is having mild cough but no fever, weight loss, loss of appetite, etc., but he has experienced blood in the vomiting in the past, not sure of the exact date when it happened last. Yesterday 8th June 2009, we visited a good x-ray clinic in our area and had a CECT thorax with FNAC performed on my father. While the radiologist was performing CT scan and FNAC, I was standing in front of the computer on which everything was displayed.
173119 tn?1296999736 My mother in law was diagnosed with small cell lung cancer in early January. It had already spread to her liver, pancreas, and bone. She completed her fourth round of chemo in April, and some of the tumors did shrink. But her dr. says no more chemo, she is too frail to withstand any more. She has had to have blood transfusions twice, she shakes uncontrollably all the time...dr. thinks it is anxiety that is causing her to shake. I disagree. She is always tired and takes naps several times a day.
Avatar f tn My mom in law recently was diagnosed with lung cancer that had spread to her liver. she has recieved one cycle of chemo like 8 days ago. she is not eating hardly anything. we are giving her boosts, ensure things of that nature. this morning my husband noticed she had brown stuff coming from her nose and mouth. an ambulance was called and they rushed her to the hospital. she talks gibberish the last couple of days. she was home.
Avatar f tn I am a 56 yr old female suffering from diahhrea, abdominal pain and vomiting. A CT scan was performed recently and the findings were a 14 mm non-calcified pulmonary nodule at the left lung base adjacent to the left hemidiaphram. It is non-specific in appearance. There is fatty infiltration of the liver. I have been referred to a a Pulmonary Specialist. I would like to know is this something I should be worried about due to the size of the nodule.
