I'm 65, in 2016 I started having a cough that would not go away. I was diagnosed with Valley fever, which is something you can get in Arizona, although I had 3 tests that were always negative. I had MRs done that showed I had several spots on my lungs, but they were small, and the doctors were not concerned with them. Last year I was told I had carcinoid tumors, two small ones that had grown over time were removed, which was cancer.
I have had the chronic cough since 2016. Monday, I was told that I might have DIPNECH Lung disease, which would be the cause of the chronic cough and the carcinoid tumors. I’m going to a Pulmonologist tomorrow. I feel hopeful.
