| Terry_Wrist - Hace 3 horas I've been seeing doctors a bit. I ought to tell em I'm not just doing traffic control I'. also helping the construction workers with some of their work, in doing so getting a lung full of cement dust. *See I only told the doctors that I'm a traffic controller and never thought about the cement dust (silica) I'm breathing in. Maybe I have a touch of silicosis, most likely acute silicosis rather than chronic. I see a specialist in 2 weeks, I'll tell him then. |

| Terry_Wrist - Hace 3 horas Pollen doesn't cause scarring of the lungs but hey I'm not a doctor, are you? |

| Terry_Wrist - Hace 3 horas Either way all the best. And you too Eddie. Have a good one. |

Zamez - Hace 2 horasI've been exposed to asbestos dust and fibres as well as 44years of breathing plaster dust hand sanding overhead without masks mostly not to mention different types of dust from other trades but all good so far . Genetics can have much to do with how susceptible you are to it . |

| Djack7-18 - hace 1 hora Well ya, I do have lower O2 levels, but that's normal for smokers my age. I still have exceptional lung capacity tho. Some scarring in my lower lungs, but that was from COVID. One nodule, but thats probably just from an epic bout I had with pneumonia 2 years ago. My lungs aren't really a big issue for me. My big health issues are chronic pancreatitis, and GERD; my GI tract is all kinda messed up. |

| Djack7-18 - hace 1 hora Fer sure genetics plays a part, Zamez. Asbestos damage usually hides for decades, tho. A chest CT every year or two would be prudent. |

| supereddie - Hace 13 minutos Zamez there is a asbestos law suit here that you can sign up for. Pay you a lot of money. But the lawyer gets 40%. It's on tv. That and camp lajune |
