Definitely these symptoms may be due to metastasis of primary cancer to the lungs.It may be some primary infection of lungs also as she had been a smoker.Check also,it may be due to decrease in platelets count due to some anti cancer drug.Now she should at least go for a complete blood count and X-Ray of chest immediately.
