@loula- I coughed up blood before my first lung cancer Cynde. It's so scary, I get your fear. What are the ER doctors doing for it when you go?

@loula- Cynde I remember coughing up blood and how scary it was. The seriousness of this depends on the amount of blood and the length of time the blood is being coughed up. The blood you cough up may come from your nose, throat, upper airways, or lungs. The medical term for coughing up blood is hemoptysis.

I never went to the ER for it. What did the doctors do for you?
