jcawork Posted October 2, 2004 Share Posted October 2, 2004 Has anyone experienced this? My Rad. Oncologist says this is okay as I have had a cough for a few weeks from Radiation irritation. Never coughed up blood prior to this. Its a bit scary. Its not a lot, but still freaks me out! Thanks, Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimmek Posted October 2, 2004 Share Posted October 2, 2004 Hi Jen My Mom has been having blood in her spit and a cough lately also. Mom did have blood when first dx, but it had stopped completely has sooon as she started treatment. Until a week ago, and we happened to be at the dr when it happened for the first time again. Honestly, just yesterday mom asked me what the dr had said the cause was and neither of us could remember, only that she wasnt worried about it. Then i see your post, and went "Oh, thats right..she said it was from radiation. And it has been over a month since mom finished rafiation. so, until I have a reason to think thtis is not true, I am going to assume she knows what she is talking about and it is NOTHING to fret over. Hope this helps, and god bless Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
