Has anyone had this.

when on holiday yesterday I coughed and could hear fluid. Had to spit out a spoonful of blood 

it happened 4 times and then stopped . My husband got very upset. But after it stopped I have been fine.

anyone else had this?

i have a face to face appointment with my oncologist on Monday. First one since lockdown maybe I can have an X-ray of CT 

anyone else had this happen in the lung ?

    Amazon has it Ruth but I bet any high street health food shop will sell it.

  • I have vague  memories of raspberry leaf tea being helpful for this but you have to be careful when in your pregnancy you take it, sorry I can't  remember the details though.

  • Thank you all for the advice xx

  • Just an update.

    i talked to my oncologist yesterday via video.

    he has booked me for a CT scan to see if they can see where the bleeding may have come from. I can have radiotherapy to stop bleeding. 
    he says if it happens again to contact them.

    Great to get a scan, that will see everything. Hopefully just a one off Ruth and it is settled now. Xx

  • Reassuring to know that things can be done to deal with this. Despite the scare, I hope you made the most of your Cornish trip and managed to make some lovely memories. Love from Rainie x

  • Hi Ruth, That is good they are looking into it! As Norb says, I too hope it is a one off and you won't need anything further being done!

    Love Annette x
