Coughing up blood with Phlegm

[The Stoned Jester]

Ok so ive been smoking weed now for about 15years fairly regularly with occasional breaks.

 

but just recently ive been smoking a shit load more because im getting nervous about my wedding soon.

 

and most mornings after i wake up ill cough up the normal funky phlegm but with red/brown blood looking streaks and blobs. - but it only happens for a bit in the morning - i can hack and cough up any other time of the day and its just normal, only after ive had a sleep and everything seems to settle.

 

obvisiouly im gonna go to the doctors ASAP and get it checked out, but is is semi normal for this to be happening or its sign of something more sinister?

hey mate i cough phlem up every morning when i go off green for a few days i see more black coming up and when im smoking a fair bit it happens aswell but then again im not the heathiest person around

possibilities ... stomach ulcers bleed and patient spits blood

violent and extended coughing bursts tiny blood vessels in throat .. patient spits blood

bronchititis , pneumonia, tuberculosis, can all result in bloody coughs

blood from lungs often bright red/ pink and frothy bubbles, possible pulmonary embolisim

 

they are extreme examples and you hopefully are not in that group BUT it is possible so,

 

... in the meantime stop smoking now for the sake of your health, you only get one body so look after it or you will suffer big time !

all the best with it Joker

What Frazz said....

look after yourself mate,get it checked out asap but try not to stress too much in the meantime either as that isn't healthy either.

Obviously get your ass to the doctors ASAP.

 

I used to have bad sinuses, always getting infected and shit and would quite often cough up a bit of blood in the morning...usually in the shower. Seems like my sinuses were just draining into the back of my throat during the night and thats where the blood was coming from.

 

Hope your problem is something nice and simple and nothing at all serious.

 

Be well
