I'm Not a Kid, I Need 2 Know...does Dad Have Cancer?! Posted: 02-02-05 10:07am
My dad has suffered for the past two years
from a really nast cough, its irritated
when he is stressed and it really watery
and chesty. He had a heart attack not so
long ago and its only now that the doctors
are taking his cough seriously, my parents
are being really shadie and wont let me
know whats going on. I know they are both
really worried and have been stressing
alot. Dad is going for a scan (i think I
heard them mention cbt? But I could be
wrong). They didnt tell me about the
heart attack at first, it wasnt until I
realised that when we visited him he was
in intensive care and the nurse mentioned
it....I was told it was 'a bit of
angina!'.
Does anyone know if this cough could be a
sign and does anyone recognise the type of
scan it is?
