Do you have respiratory difficulties?
Have you been sick recently?
Have you lost weight unintentionally?

Gooooood Question

I had a motorcycle accident back 7 months ago. Had a collapsed lung and my spleen was removed. I have basically fully recovered except for some nerve damage in my legs and do not take any medication.

Do you have sleep problems like sleep interruptions?
Do you cough?
Can you check your neck (above collorbone) and your armpit for swollen lymph nodes?

Never been a sound sleeper. I average around 4 -5 hours per night and that is usually interupted by noise or pets. I have had a slight cough over the last few weeks. Thinking it is allergies from post nasal drip. No fever.

Did you suffer head injury when you had a motorcycle accident?
Are you taking some medicines?
Have you experienced unexplained weight loss?
Do you have itchy skin?
Do you find difficult to breath?
Do you feel chest pain, fatigue, muscle pain, and chills?

Had a hematoma on the brain. The only med i tale is Lisinopril for blood pressure. Weight and appetitie are fine. Recently I have had a hard time breathing, either exhausted from stairs or pain in chest area when I breathe deep.

Increased sweating is related to head injury, but there can be many others reasons for severe sweating.
Are you coughing hard?
Do you have a cough that produces a small amount of clear mucus?
Do you have a sharp pain on one side of your chest when you take a deep breath?
