Hi everyone, any doctors in the house.

I've had cold for around a week, then on thursday, friday and saturday night i couldn't sleep because of my constant coughing.

I woke up yesterday morning and was coughin up blood for about the first two hours of the morning.

Around 5pm i started to get a really bad headache. all up my neck and into my head at the back. By 8PM i was being sick and coughing up blood again.
My girlfriend rang the NHS helpline. they said go to the A&E dept at the hospital, but i couldn't be arsed to wait for 4 hours. so i didn't bother.

I feel a bit better now, but i fell very light headed and am having trouble focusing.

When I used to smoke, I coughed up blood most mornings. But have given up and feel a lot better now

pneumonia can turn into pleurisy, which you don't want. its when the fluid inside your lungs starts to set and when you breathe in and out it rips off the lining of your lungs as its sticky.

supposed to be excruciating pain
