Coughing And Blood And Acid?
Posted: 11-29-07 16:55pm

I have been coughing for almost 10 months now. I have been to 3-4 different doctors, 1 ENT doc and 1 Lung doc and I just cant get better. I keep on coughing up phelgm and blood at times. Really bad at night. I have been tested for Brochatis and other things. Now the Lung doc says I have SEVERE asthma but I have been on Pumotrol, an oral inhaler AND the asthma/allergy pill... singular? AND NO PROGRESS!!! I dont know what it is and am miserable... dont know where to turn... can anyone PLEASE help!!!

Also my first doc thought it was acid reflux and put me on Prolosec and that didnt work either.

There are tiny little blood vessels in you throat that are easily damaged just by coughing. As long as you are not coughing up alot of bright red blood, I would just take the advice from your doctor. Continuous coughing will do that. Same thing with you nose. If you blow to hard you can open up some of those tiny blood vessels also. Any forceful cough out sneeze can do it.
