Hi there Brianmandu . I had the same issue 6 months ago. My GP thought I had a

Pulmonary embolism So rushed off to Hospital. X-ray and CT scan. Turned out to be an infection in the Lower Left Lobe of my lung. I would get it checked out very quickly if it was me. Cheers Gerald.

Hi Brianmandu, I'm sorry to hear about your troubles. What an awful time you have had.

I would most certainly try to see a doctor today about your stabbing pain. It could be an infection & you need medication.

You will be feeling scared, but one way of getting past that feeling is to do something about it.

Go to your doctor & get your symptoms checked, get the meds & I'm sure that will help your panicky feelings.

Let us know how you get on & my best wishes go with you. 🌻
