I'm feeling uneasy with my breathing and I'm also pretty tired. I got tested for COVID but it came back negative. I don't have a cold or a cough, and I've taken azithromycin for three days. What could be causing these symptoms?

I've been having breathing issues and often get a congested nose. A doctor once told me I have sinus problems. I sometimes get headaches in the evening, but they're not too bad. Ive been smoking for about 9 or 10 years. Occasionally, I experience chest pain for a couple of days, but it usually just goes away and isn't that frequent. Should I be worried about lung cancer? What are the symptoms I should be looking out for?
