Mood Swings
We all have moods that can go up and down. However, those with lung cancer may experience difficulties in regulating their mood and might also experience unexplained anger, irritability and depression. Thus, if you or someone you know is usually an upbeat, happy person but this changes seemingly out of nowhere and for no reason, it could be a sign that lung cancer is the cause. However, this link is not usually made.
Unfortunately, if the cancer has developed to the point that an individual’s mood is effected, it is likely already in a later stage. Therefore, if this sounds familiar to you seek medical attention in order to see if lung cancer is the reason for these symptoms (and if not, it is important to get an idea of what is the cause of this change in mood).
