I went through the same. Primary clinic thought I had bronchitis, did not treat me for cough, had eye inflammation for two months, was treated for pneumonia three times, eventually different physician ordered a ct scan and found nsc lung cancer. I am 70 and am in clinical trial with Mayo.

I hope you'll be ok! I'm 52 and they found a mass on my lung after I went to the ER with blood I was spittijng up. I have no other symptoms at all!! The pulmonary doctor said that cancer is usually more dense than the mass on my lung, however he did a procalcitonin test to check for a infection and there isn't one so I am terrified that this will be cancer. The doctor also said the surrounding lymph nodes were not being affected yet. I hope that is a good sign. This is a nightmare to go through!
May I ask the process you did to be a patient of Mayo?
