Please tell your friend to consult a physician ASAP ~ tell her that her symptoms may well be something
other than cancer but something that definitely needs treatment none the less! See:
HealthCheck: Lung Disease
I am currently in my sixth week of tests, biopsies and more test for a number of masses found in my lungs
>(See: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1604933/posts and http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1604933/reply?c=53 for details) complicated by a critical loss of blood I experienced from longterm (and unbeknown) internal bleeding.
I am scheduled for yet another test this Wednesday and am hoping a consultation scheduled for Thursday will provide a preliminary diagnosis and the ability to move forward with treatment ... whatever that treatment may be. (fingers crossed)
I prayer your friend will find strength in this difficult time and will know in her heart that God is with her throughout her good times and bad.
