apical lung cancer symptoms

Hello,

     I have been at this site for a couple of years at the multiple myeloma discussion group.  I don't have myeloma, just monoclonal gammopathy. I have also ACQUIRED von willebrand, A bleeding disorder.  I have many different symptoms and have not had much help with the medical industry. I was diagnosed 3 1/2 years ago.  I have had lung problems and would like some info on pleural cancers. As part of my BASIC workup (2006) there was bilateral apical pleuraLthickening noted.  I was not told of this finding. I only learned of this after getting my records from this bad doctor. I have breathing problems, severe sweating episodes, night sweats, chest pain, right shoulder, right scapula pain, breast pain and low grade fevers. I don't have good insurance so I have not be able to afford any more doctor visits. I did have a x-ray again in March, they did not mention anything  then, but I continue to have symptoms. Does any of these symptoms seem like a form of lung cancer?  How hard is it to detect apical cancer?

                               Thanks so much!

A whole lot going on and the stress isn't helping you recover.

 Are you going to the Cancer Treatment Center of America or contacted

The American Cancer Society???  You really should see if you can get

immediate help along those lines.  Sounds like you're in need of regular treatment.

Lighting a candle for you.
