Poor you Sheepy the last 17 months seem to have been rather tough having to live with these awful symptoms you describe. You did the right thing in going back to the doctor's yesterday but I am sorry to hear that your blood pressure was high and your lungs were not clear. It's good they are doing all these tests though and getting your bloods done again as well as this chest X Ray. I know it's really hard but try not to assume that this is something serious as there are so many things it could be other than cancer. I am glad they are looking into this properly now as it would be good for you to have a proper diagnosis and a solution to these ongoing issues. 

The best thing to do as you are waiting to find out more is to keep busy and distracted if you can and avoid looking things up online. I can imagine it is hard for you to do this at the moment but it will help you feel a little less anxious. 

I hope you will also hear from others here who have been through all this before and that they will be along soon to share their story with you. 

Keeping everything crossed for you that everything turns out fine. 

Best wishes,
