Hello i become desperate that's why im posting here. Nearly a year agoni started to cough up phlegh tinged with blood from the lungs. I did all the possoble tests x ray ct scan bronhoscopy. Alll normal
Im seen by a top specialist at Brompton but he can't explain....
He belive maight be a low grade infection
Anyone.had something like that.
Any replay is welcomed
Thanks
I have added a pic
Oh Dear if they can’t explain at the Royal Brompton..If you don’t feel well go to your GP..I wouldn’t wait.. take care x
Good idea to go to see your GP Steve just to be checked again. The Brompton need to keep an eye on things too.
Good luck xxxxx
Been ti the gp 3 times been refered to local respiratory clinic twice and since apr i have been seen by Brompton royal hospital....no luck yet
Don’t give up Steve. Xx
Most of us cough up blood at some stage during our lives,often as a result of minor blood vessel damage or infection as the Brompton have indicated.I think perhaps in future you could possibly describe your symptoms as effectively as showing us a picture.Maybe you need to see your Gp for reassurance that all is well...........regards skis and scruffy cat.
I have the same issue from time to time. In my case it turned out to be post nasal drip from bloody noses, even though you don't always know your nose is bloody. Now I can always tell because after I cough up a little blood I blow my nose and there's always a little blood in the tissue.
Hi
I’ve had so many test to be told not lungs just upper respiratory and asthma. I never cough and not produce something. Often yellow, green occasionally orange and rarely blood.
Always assumed that any blood was just a broken blood vessel.
It is so very frustrating isn’t it.
I always have low grade infection, normally mixed with H Influenza which seems to like where it is as just will not go.
I am so very tired all the time. It look fine.
I’ve found that this site is excellent and the knowledge and mpathy the members have is unparalleled.
Never be afraid to g9 back, that they have taught me!
This were the words used in my case...possible low grade infection i.never cough that's strange
We all have similarities and many differences. For thirty years l thought l was the only one and seems for 100% mate to anyone else l am but l have found many ho have similar traits.
If in doubt, see GP
I.was worried about cancer or pulmonary fibrosis or copd but they said a high resolution ct scan normal bronhoscopy and normal pft rules out this conditiona
Good news then..some suggestions if I may: how about seeing an ENT for your larynx and a gastroenterologist for an endoscopy..talking from personal experience..
Take care x
Agreed
Same here and i got the same answer which is a relief but i still clear blood streaks from my throat each day for months! What the hell is it??
did you find an answer? I've been doing this for a few months and thought maybe it's long covid.
Have you been checked for Aspergillosis Steve? Maybe worth it if they have tried everything else.. good luck
Sorry want to write Stevenn13 it's all new to me😀
I can't even get that right lol stevennmeant to put 03
Its hard for the top doctors ....as well
No they didn't i will mention next time
No they didn't i will mention next time
Thanks
I have Apergillosis there are a few people I'm my support group that cough up blood from time to time.. it's just worth a mention.
Is that on top of other condition or its a separate disease
I have Asthma bronchiectasis & ABPA which is a form of Aspergillis there are a few different types buts it's usually people that have had asthma or cystic fibrosis get it.
Any luck? I have same symptoms
Hi v popov81
Unfortunately nothing has found i had again a ct scan and a heart scan .
Im very frustrated im only 36 years old
What tests have u had?
Doctors also find nothing
I have had the same thing. Small hard phlegm that is white or cream and jelly like and sometimes with blood and coughing up straight blood. I am a 36 year old smoker tho.....it could be bronchitis or stomach related
My mum was coughing up blood and it turned out that it was coming from her nose regions and dripping down her throat.
What tests did she have for them to work it out? I have the same symptoms.. Thank you so much.
4 years now and i still have the problems still have no real answers:((
Jeez, 4 years! Mate I have the exact same symptoms as you it seems.. do you have any updates on the blood?
You get checked for TB?
You get checked for TB?
I have the same issue. I have had multiple scopes, echocardiogram, lung biopsy’s, ct scans, antibiotics, steroids, tested for all types of things and everything comes back normal. About 2018 I had multiple cavitory lesions and nodules in both lungs. Dr’s have noted significant improvement but no idea what caused the lesions. I’m still periodically coughing up bloody mucus. No bloody noses... no persistent coughs, non-smokers.... I saw somewhere in this thread they suggested to see and ENT... I’m going to call and schedule tomorrow. Good luck.
ylur description matches mine as well...verry complicated problem....i feel better now and managed to run half marathon last week but still coughing up mucus and blood occasionally no runny or bloody nose at all
Let me know how you're investigation goes please
Tha ks
How did you go with your investigation, is the problem still ongoing mate?
I’m exactly the same constantly coughing up blood , it becomes very frustrating when you can’t clear it and you end up with a chest infection through it . I’ve had every test and now it’s just the normal but I end up going to the doctors if I have any concerns , which ends up with me taking antibiotics and steroids for 7 days . As I’ll see any doctor when this happens it becomes quite funny when they think you have something more sinister .
Any worries just book in Your doctors
i had same issues with you from 2019-2020 and im still 27 yrs old. can you explain, on what time your symptoms triggered? are you clearing with heavy cough or just small effort like clearing throat? my symptoms (blood phlegm) usually occurs on morning after wake up, after eating (because after eating, my throat looks like producing phlegm so much), and after deep breathing when on cold weather/air conditioner
in this 4 years, how much blood in your phlegm on 24 hours? have you ever had blood phlegm more than 3 tablespoons/day?
Oh same problem. And did yoi cjrcj eith your doctor, what was the cause?
Have you been tested for TB?
Infection and inflammation it was I think
Hi I don't know if this will help but here goes. I recently had a lu g biopsy and was told I would have mucus tinged with blood for a day or so. It was scary as I had more than just a tinge coupled with very slight temp 38.1. I went to a&e and was told it was an infection and given doxycycline which cleared it up. I would definitely see your GP
