Lung Cancer at 19?

I'm having difficult breathing.  I find myself taking TRYING to take deep breaths every other minute... My stomach is supporting my breathing.  I dont feel that I am able to take deep breaths and I feel as if something is stuck in my throat.  Certain areas of my lungs hurt when I go to the gym and try to excercise.  I suffer from asthma and have been to the ER twice for respiratory complications/acute bronchitis.  I'm currently not taking any medication to keep my asthma under control.  I smoked for 2 yrs 1/2.  I might just be extremely paranoid,...I have some wheezing sometimes, my chest constantly feels tight, and every morning i find spots of blood in my notril mucus...I'm wondering nwhat might be wrong...I cant currently go to the doctor because My insurance doesnt go into affect for another month....please help?

My gawdddddddddd go to the ER!! you can not have breathing problems and not have abnything to open up your breathing tubes!! I am asmatic and have an Inhalor,Nebulizer and take Singular once a day. I also was diagnosed with paralyzed left diaphram..\
Do me a favor pleaseeeeeeeee.. check to see if you have mold anywhere in your home.. I just left a place of 5 years and now in the middle of a lawsuit. Please dont go on any longer without meds for this.. you will have an attack that if you dont open up your lungs you will die.. I already had a major attack and was taken to the ER dead in my vans front seat.. They said I was unresponsive and my brother who drove said it was horrible to drive and see your sister dying beside you

I think you need to seek medical attention. This sounds serious, go to the emergency room, they can not turn away patients that are in need. Worry about your bills letter. Once you get yourself better, you can look for ways to pay for the medical expenses.  Also, Medicaid can help depending on your financial situation.  Just get evaluated by a physician as soon as possible
