He says smoking is the top risk factor for lung cancer.Dr. Haq says symptoms don’t always appear until later stages and may include cough, fatigue, chest discomfort, trouble breaking and coughing up blood. If you experience any of these, it is critical you contact your doctor to schedule a screening. Take a lung cancer screen test here.Dr. Haq explains, “People who have smoked for more than 20 pack years, what that means is they've smoked a pack per day for the past 20 years, and they're between 50 and 80 years of age. They're currently smoking, or if they have quit smoking in the past 15 years, they should be screened by what we call low-dose CT scans of the lung. They should be done once a year.”Other risk factors include exposure to asbestos, radon, or exposure to secondhand smoke. Family history may also play a part.

That could change when the Buffaloes (4-2, 1-2 Pac-12) host Stanford (1-4, 0-3) at Folsom Field on Friday (8:20 p.m., ESPN).“At practice this week, he’s been starting,” Hart said Wednesday. “So he should be getting in this week, as long as he keeps continuing to progress like he has been.”It remains to be seen if Kennedy, who has played just 10 defensive snaps all season, will actually start or not, but it wouldn’t be a surprise if a new face was in the lineup.One of the intriguing stories of CU’s first half has been ...Men’s basketball notes: CU Buffs tabbed fifth in Pac-12 preseason poll

And we’ve had some really good practices. I think we’re 12 practices in, and this is a competitive group.”Two-time defending conference tournament champion Arizona took the top spot, landing 18 of the 22 first-place votes.
