[QUOTE="Mep, post: 1254695, member: 211362"] It sounds to me you should be going to your emergency department or an urgent care facility to get seen. Coughing up blood could be quite serious and life threatening.... could be nothing serious too, but you don't know either way. I don't want to scare you about it... but waiting until 4 October is too far away and if you have a serious health issue you just can't wait until then. It's best to get checked quickly. I'm also surprised your doc surgery just told you to try again another day. They should've put you through to speak to their nurse at the very least for advice. They do that at my doc surgery... they do not make assumptions about your health, but put you through to their nurse for her to advise what to do... eg. get to hospital quick, etc. They've done that to me several times. There was one time when the nurse offered to call an ambulance for me. So always better to speak to a medical professional rather than a clerk. [/QUOTE]
