The happiness of people is not necessarily to have the best of everything...but make the most of what you have!!
I've just eaten one, it helped a lot!
OK, I seem to be getting better so I'll let you know what happened.
I cough a lot. Far more than most of you will appreciate I think and when it gets too bad or turns to infection, I change my antibiotics for a while and get it back under control. It has been getting quite bad during the past few days and last night I think I woke up every hour to have a coughing session. I was just waking up and started to cough again, but this time I could tell that it was more liquid and there was lots of it - it was pure blood! Oh dear, that's not good!
I worked out that this was coming from the area of my throat rather than lungs because it would drip out of my mouth (sorry to be gross) if I leaned forwards. Anyway, every time I decided that I would have to get myself to the ER it would stop, but then start again if I had a coughing session. I did not want to spend time in hospital, so I took the stupid option of staying at home with the promise to myself that if it had not cleared up by 10 o'clock I would go to hospital.
Well, it has cleared up. Still quite a bit of blood in the mucus, but it is old stuff and getting less all the time. I guess that I must have burst a blood vessel in my wind pipe because other than all the blood I felt fine. One of my better days if anything.
OK, you can nag now. I wanted to get it off my chest (so to speak ) earlier, but was not in the mood to be told what I already knew. Thanks for the support. Panic now over. It scared the hell out of me.

Ah! I see you slipped in an update while I was leaving my last reply. I agree that it sounds like a burst blood vessel that has healed itself. I think you made the right decision.
Yikes, that does sound very scary!! I'm glad it is getting better, I hope you can get some good sleep. Coughing sucks.
Good to hear things are settling , hope you have a better night to night. take care
