I have had shortness of breath lately with moderate exertion. Can anyone help me with symptoms of lung mets?

    Hi - as I mentioned to you in another post, if you are not regularly seeing your onc, I would report all symptoms if they still persist after 2 weeks just 2 get it checked out and to give you peace of mind...

    Kind regards,

    HI Hon...lung metster here...going on 3 years now...if you think you have lung mets, you need an xray first...please tell your onc!

    Shortness of breath, cough, pains in chest or back are all symptoms of lung mets as well as other pulmonary diseases...don't mess around. Get checked out. I was asymptomatic. It was just a fluke that my mets were found during a routine exam that included a chest xray.

    Just call you onc. Schedule an exam and ask for some tests to rule out mets. Please. Let us know what happens...Mena...xo

    If you've recieved AC and herceptin it could be your heart causing the shortness of breath, talk to your doctor, you may need a MUGA.
