Hello, These symptoms started about 2 or 3 months ago, after walking for several miles.
I am 64, and have shortness of breath that comes on once or twice a day, as well as coughing up flem. I’ve been to the heart doctor and he says my heart is fine. Nothing has showed up on my chest x rays.
I have been exposed to asbestus in my work, years ago. I have an appointment with a lung doctor in a couple of weeks.
Anyone have any ideas?
Asbestosis and mesothelioma, come to mind, but I was told those should have shown up on the chest x ray from my family doctor.
