Hi mate
No experience with bloody noses on that scale but it sounds like Hospital would be the best place. What meds are you on? One of them could be contributing.
I consider myself to be the expert on nose bleeds, I've even been hospitalised for a day or two in the past. ;) Although a little alarming they have always stopped within a reasonable time, but my main concern would be that they were always associated with a Wegener's flare. Since my disease has been held in remission I have had no trouble from my nose at all. Are you sure you are receiving the right treatment for your Wegener's?
i have nose bleeds and they are always worse at the beginning of a flare !!!!!! DEE X worth getting it checked again

I don't have this issue, but please listen to Jack and Dee. Gotta rule out Wegs.

hi andrew im on clopidigrel (plavix) and aspirin both used for keeping blood from clotting no doubt contributing to my problem thnx andrew ian
ian when i started taking warfarin about a month ago after getting blood clots on lungs i had two nose bleeds that i thought were never going to stop
i was at a friends at the time a nearly used all her tissues !!!
the gp thought it was tablets and it would settle down
touch wood not had any since hope u get sorted out DEEx
