It would be extremely rare, almost never heard of, that a person your age would have lung cancer. The early symptoms of lung cancer are a persistent cough that lasts for weeks. If your breathing difficulties are distressing to you - your family physician can check that out for you with a quick listen through a stethoscope. Stay away from cigarettes and weed - both can cause cancer.

its very unlikely to be lung cancer but more likely to be a chronic bronchitis or such as that, maybe even an asthmatic bronchitis. get checked out by a doctor as these are highly treatable
