Lung Cancer - It's Not Only for Smokers

Lung cancer kills more people annually than breast cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer, liver cancer, melanoma, and kidney cancer combined! The 5-year survival rate for lung cancer is only 15 percent. Sixty percent of lung cancer cases are now diagnosed as nonsmokers or former smokers. Two-thirds of nonsmokers diagnosed with lung cancer are women.

Saying that lung cancer is not only for smokers makes a lot of sense to me. I, myself, am hypersensitive to the smoke given off by cigarettes. When exposed to smoke, I feel like I'm going to die if not because of asthma maybe of lung cancer.
