Bloody nose that won't stop

This is the first time in 20 years that my nose wouldn't stop bleeding. So I went to the ER and right now I have packing in it. That makes it very hard to breathe so I turned my O2 up to 6lpm. I will see the specialist on Monday at 9 a.m. It is scary but I'm taking a xanax a day to cope. I guess I am getting O2 through both nostrils even though the packing is there.


  1. Hi Bunny - I'm sorry to hear this (bleeding nose), has happened to you. It must be pretty significant since, as you shared, it's the first time in 20 years!
    I'm glad to hear the plan is to see your specialist on Monday. Please do check back and let us know how this all turns out for you.
    We have a concern for your good health.
    Enjoy the weekend as best you can, given the circumstances.
    Wishing you well,
    Leon (site moderator COPD.net)
