    Coughing up blood
    Coughing up blood is not good at any time. I would contact my doctor and let him know what is happening immediately.

    I went through chemo and radiation for lung cancer 2 years ago and am currently being treated with just chemo for a recurrence and I have never coughed up blood since completing treatment. Please contact your doctor asap and let us know what he said and how you are doing.

    Stay strong,
    Glenna
