I woke up this morning and all was good. Did my morning inhaler, took a shower, and ate breakfast. I sat down to do a little surfing the net and started coughing. It was all blood. This lasted for about 20 minutes. I got my daughter to take me to the hospital. I had called my doctor first and when he heard how much blood I was coughing up he sent me to the ER. I just now (6 PM) got a private room. So far had intravenous cortico steroid, two different intravenous antibiotics, gave a sputum sample for testing, had a CT scan and chest x-ray, and due for a breathing treatment soon. I am here for observation and not an inpatient. My doctor read the CT scan and x-ray and saw nothing of concern. He thinks he might have to scope me and fix the same area in my lungs as he did two years ago. I have not coughed up anymore blood so far, so we will see how it goes. I don't feel bad at all, so who knows what the deal is. I will post more when I know more.
