@paxmundi If I recall correctly, your lungs are prone to hemoptysis and you must be extra cautious...that said, it doesn't surprise me that you would be someone who had a rare side effect of bleeding from levalbuterol.
If you read a summary of all the pre-release studies of Xopenex/levalbuterol, this was not a known side effect, but remember that test populations are carefully pre-screened. I doubt if anyone with a history of hemoptysis, especially severe episodes, would have been accepted.
