hi @ejjebdjeoe - it sounds like you are going through a tough and scary time. it's good you are having a CT scan which will definitely show if there is any issue(s) with your lungs. if I can offer some reassurance (sort of), lung cancer most often doesn't have obvious symptoms (even at stage 4). so I think it's much more likely something else is causing your symptoms, but again, it's good you are having imaging done. have you heard of Long COVID? a post viral syndrome like that could cause the kind of issues you describe. (I'm not a dr, just a lung cancer patient.) when are you having your CT scan?

@mamajite yes I’ve heard of it and I did have Covid then another illness that had flu symptoms. They ordered the wrong ct it was a “high resolution interstitium” which is for lung diseases so I’m gonna discuss this with my doctor on the 10th that way they can change it to a standard ct with contrast it should be this month. What stage are you?
