Is it normal to spit blood up ?

Hi Lilian. I’ve answered in your other post but yes. Your throat will be bleeding. The normal sort will be streaks of blood.
I have just had a visit from the district nurse who was really helpful. She is going to ask my gp to prescribe some long lasting morphine for day and night time use plus some thing for my mouth, she was really helpful not like the one that came 2weeks ago. I am feeding via the peg at the moment as I can’t manage to eat anything and I know I can’t afford to lose weight xxx
