Symptoms of lung Mets

Hello everyone;

I have Mets to my spine, which according to my last scan we “resolved”.

I’ve had this persistent cough lately,with some pain on my upper back and I’m really fearing the worse.

There’s no pain when I breath in and out,but my chest feels weird.

I had Covid last year and I felt the same way.

I don’t think this is Covid again.

I just feel strange

    hi faith123, a persistent cough is worth getting checked out with your doctor. It was one of the first signs I had mets. I also got breathless on exertion, but had no pain. Try not to get too anxious, I am still here 9 years on from then. For your sake, I am hoping its 'only' covid again!

    I didn't have a cough or pain but I did have a lot of weird chest feelings from my pleural effusion, from mets in the pleura. I'd get checked out ASAP! All of these are symptoms of possible mets.
