In November I had a panic attack and
didn't know it.
A medical team showed up to my apartment
and did routine checks (heart, blood
pressure, etc.)
One man had me sit up and was listening to
my heart and lungs. He said he heard a
faint sound in my left lung and thought I
was getting sick. He did this odd light
tapping and said he heard something.
I don't know if it's my anxiety that is
making think I have lung cancer, but I
have been feeling an odd sensation in the
spot where he said he heard something.
People with anxiety are often paranoid of
dying or having some kind of cancer so I
don't know if it's just my mind playing
tricks on me.
The sensation in my lung isn't actually
painful, kind of feels like pressure? Or a
very light ache? It is speratic and not
constant. I don't know how to explain it..
I'm not even 100% sure it's my lung. Could
it be a small muscle? Cuz I do have back
problems.
I don't have a cough or phlegm. If I
inhale deeply I feel no discomfort or
pain.
I live in an apartment that permits
smoking. I do not smoke, but my neighbors
do heavily and my apartment and myself are
always smelling like cigarettes.
Anyway, just thought I'd throw this out
there and see what others think. Thank you
for reading.
