1 - Tuberculosis - a productive cough, haemoptysis, fevers, night sweats and weight loss.
2 - Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) - a productive cough, dyspnoea and wheezing. The smoking history in the case above may persuade some towards this answer, however, the biggest clue as to why this answer is incorrect is that COPD does not cause finger clubbing.
3 - Bronchiectasis - a productive cough with copious amounts of purulent sputum, occasional haemoptysis, wheezing, and is often related to a history of childhood respiratory infections.
5 - Lung abscess - a productive cough, pleuritic chest pain, haemoptysis, malaise, weight loss and a characteristic swinging fever.
