I don't know what the x-rays looked like. I just accepted the doctors word on whether they showed more bleeding or less bleeding. I think they could also generally hear it when they listen to my lungs. With bad bleeding i coughed up a cup or two of fresh blood which was pretty clear evidence. Milder bleeds might be only a teaspoon or two. Later on the main symptoms were increased fatigue and drop in hemoglobin. Sometimes this was quite rapid so they started giving transfusions as soon as we realized what was happening.
