question: I have had a cough and mucus/flem issue from my nose and lungs for two months now. It has really started to hurt, it gets worse at night and once I start coughing it is hard to stop. I don t smoke and I m not around smoke. I sound like a smoker and would blame it on that or second hand if I was exposed to it, however, I m not. It is slowly worsening but my tissue use has slowed down. Do I have cancer :(
