This is what's bothering me right now. My family doesn't know about my sickness and neither do I, but I feel that I have a major lung disease. Last year, I had a respiratory tract infection and I know that it's back, but what should I do? Should I tell my family? Well, I am not yet sure if this is the same disease or worst, a cancer, but one thing I know is that every time I do hard tasks, my back aches and I couldn't breathe. It is as if my chest is stoned.

Why don't you try getting a check-up? If nothing comes up, then good. But if you have some sort of disease, you definitely have to tell your family.. They can help you with your treatment.. ^_^

Why don't you tell your closest friend about your problem? Ask her/him not to tell your family yet.. I'm sure s/he would understand. I'm also scared of going to the doctor because I don't want to find out about any diseases in my body. Whenever I go to the doctor, I ask my friends or my boyfriend to go with me. So ask your friend to go with you..to help you go through the check-up..

Telling it to your family ill be the best way for you to go through it. I know they can help you out and give out the support you need to go through the sickness. Probably, you can start of with the person you feel closest to you w/in your family and whoever that is will help you tell it to the rest of the family. If you are still in doubt, you can start of by telling them that you feel something different and you think you need to have a checkup. And once you are sure of what the sickness is, you can tell them.

hi there! ;0
looks like you have got some serious problem right now, huh?
well, this is te only advice i can give you.
be honest with your family, im sure they will accept you still and they will not change the way they look at you once you tell them about your suspected sickness. in fact, i think they will help you to be more healthy and to get over your sickness. :)
good luck, my friend. ;0

Thank you! That really is so so problematic on my part. I couldn't really decide whether or not to tell them. I really need people's advice right now. My friends don't know about this because I know that they will tell my family once they find out. I am really in a dilemma right now. And I couldn't focus on my studies because of this. There are physical activities in school too that we are required to do like exercise, PE class and stuff.
