Experts have issued a warning over a little-known lung cancer symptom that strikes while you are asleep.
A huge 48,500 people are diagnosed with the condition in each year, according to Cancer Research UK, with 4,940 people across Scotland receiving a lung cancer diagnosis in 2021, according to the latest Public health Scotland figures. The deadly disease was named alongside breast, bowel and prostate cancer as one of the most common types of the disease in the country.
It means it is vital to be aware of possible warning signs, with one such warning sign occurring at night while you are asleep. According to NHS GP Dr Anita Raja , patients struck by lung cancer may wake up from their sleep covered in sweat.
