Hope he also had a CXR? The results will really help in diagnosing, just be calm though
Re: Bleeding gums by bigboyk(m): 9:22pm On Jul 11, 2012
Please, what's a CXR? He definately hasn't had that.
Re: Bleeding gums by bigboyk(m): 9:40pm On Jul 11, 2012
Okay, now I get what u mean. A chest x-ray. The doc didn't recommend that. Thanks alot for ur concern.
Re: Bleeding gums by Caracta(f): 10:23pm On Jul 11, 2012
25? That's really serious. Pls be calm, he'll be fine. Let's keep our fingers crossed till the results are out. He has my prayers though

Yea, thats it. Lets wait for the result. Remember, be calm ok. Dont panic. Whatever it may be, there's always a solution
Re: Bleeding gums by bigboyk(m): 6:30pm On Jul 14, 2012
The results are out and he was found to have pneumonia and a rupture of a blood vessel. Treatment has commenced and the blood has ceased to come out. Thank you all for your care. God bless.
Re: Bleeding gums by Caracta(f): 7:52pm On Jul 14, 2012
He'll be fine. Have faith. I wish him quick recovery. Like i always say, 'This too shall pass'
Re: Bleeding gums by Odunnu: 8:25pm On Jul 14, 2012
Please ensure he takes his medications as prescribed. It is well

Hi
66 year old guy scared as coughed up red blood this morning about half teaspoon with phlegm
History
I have barratts oesophagus/ slight reflux controlled by one tablet of nexium per day
Last year I got into habit of violently clearing my throat when I get up by severe induced coughing to clear phlegm from odd cigarette day before
Stupid really
Had very small bit of blood on phlegm many months ago when doing this stupid clearing throat thing but nothing until again until this morning
Obiviously worried I have throat or lung cancer but hoping this stupid habit I have got into has just burst a blood vessel somewhere
Really need some help and advice on this please

Smoking and barretts don't go together, you are trying to provoke a throat carcinoma, if you haven't already.
See your ENT specialist promptly !
