Hi Charts good to hear that you have stopped smoking but as you have already been smoking for the last couple of years so it's going to take some time for your lungs to recover from whatever damage they have sustained from smoking. No you are not going to get lung cancer at this age from smoking, but you can probably get a heart attack in young age if you continue smoking. I would like to suggest you to get an ECG and ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY done. DO NOT start SMOKING again. Good Luck
