The disease maybe fatal causing death as its is accompanied by blood. And as you say you are coughing means lungs problem , try matching your symptoms with ' tuberculosis' or other disease , if you want an easy result try an android app as nurse to guide you more specifically about your troubles. apps like online nurse will ask you questions and contain details of all kinds of major disease , so without doctor you can come to know what kind of trouble you are facing, , if the blood is from lungs then it can be trouble, but there are also lots of place where blood can come from during infection.

It sounds like pneumonia. But go see your doctor. You have symptoms of pneumonia. But when it comes to your lungs don't fuck around.

Personally I think going to the internet with any medical question is a bad idea simply because you will freak yourself out for something that could be minor. I'll be the first to admit that I do the same thing but in all honesty it's never done anything but freak me out more about something that I can't cure without a visit to the doctor anyway. All we can do is speculate and I doubt that there are many doctors on here. It could be something as simple as you're " shedding" (I use that term loosely for lack of a better word) the lining in your throat because you have been coughing too much.

That is definitely something very serious. I'm sorry your doctor is taking so long to see you. Have you considered going to the ER? I would. How are you storing the things you are coughing up?

I'm putting them in a zip lock bag for safe keep I don't know if i have to keep it cool or in heat

[kittykatg]

Keep it cool for sure. That will keep it from becoming contaminated with mold.

[Asker]

Should i bring a bag to school to keep those things in if i get some more

[kittykatg]

If you already have one bag full then I wouldn't worry about keeping a bag for school. Also it sounds pretty serious, I suggest not going to school or anywhere besides a hospital.

You need an emergency appointment. There's no excuse for pushing your appointment until next week. Go to your nearest hospital emergency room NOW and get a CBC and chest CT with and without contrast.

Coughing blood is the last thing you want in life. Very dangerous.

I'm gonna need more information. Can you upload a pic or something on imgur?

Also, do you have any internal pain? I'm not a doctor haha I just know a lot about anatomy and physiology.

why wait so long

[Asker]

My mother works plus i have rehearsals and homework we barely have time for each other

[Opinion Owner]

I would be more concerned about going to the DR than going to rehearsals

[Asker]

True but like i said my mother works and we don't know anyone who could take me

[Opinion Owner]

Can't you go alone or are you that young. I'm sure your mother would take the time off if she knew how sick you are. I wouldn't be waiting around if were you!
