If you are not going to see a doctor, I can't help you.

You could have a tumor, bronchitis, esophageal cancer, liver effects, ..........

The most common lung cancer is smoking.

Lung Cancer Symptoms

Lung Cancer symptoms vary from person to person and may include:

A cough that will not go away and gets worse over time
Constant chest pain, or arm and shoulder pain
Coughing up blood
Shortness of breath, wheezing or hoarseness
Repeated episodes of pneumonia or bronchitis
Swelling of the neck and face
Loss of appetite and/or weight loss
Fatigue
Clubbing of fingers
Many of these symptoms are not cancer, but if you notice one or more of them for more than two weeks, see your doctor.
I hope this helped you!!!!!!!

You don't say for how long this has been happening or how old you are. How is your general health?
Asthma will "take your breath away"
Asthma, bronchitis, allergy to smoke, sinus or respiratory infection.
Oh, and let's not forget good old pneumonia, the sneaky kind old fashioned "Walking Pneumonia". You don't feel sick or have a fever, but your lungs are infected and filling with fluid anyway. Dangerous because by the time you do feel really sick, you are VERY SICK.
And treatment is harder longer and may not work by then.
Lung cancer takes years to develop.
Have you been smoking for 20-30 years?
Did you start young, do you smoke more than a pack a day?
How much do you smoke, do you wake up and have to have a cigarette?
Don't want to see a doctor?
Learn to care for yourself.
Coffee will slow an asthma attack and increase airflow to the lungs with just one cup.
If you do have asthma it is better to carry an prescription inhaler with you all the time.
It can mean the difference between a trip to the ER and not having to go.

if you're losing weight . or else have a deep nagging cough that persists all the time even while at rest aka a cough that goes away. getting winded and tired all the time even just walking or going up stairs. that would be indicators of possible lung cancer (my mom just died of it a couple of months back) and no you dint necessarily have to cough up blood either. smoking and drinking alcohol irritates the throat therefore initiating a gag reflex aka coughing.

Do you have lung cancer so you can firstly going to better doctor for better treatment and then avoid more smoking and avoid more junk food is really good to helping to risk of lung cancer. Lung cancer is spreading very fast in our human body so avoid it smoking.
