Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Cancer / March 2004Still bleeding from the Biopsy
Man here it is almost a week later and I still cough up little blood clots the size smaller than a dried pea not all the time but still it is there. Had the Biopsy on last Tuesday here it is Monday and I still cough up little blood clots mainly in the morning but kind of scares me. No shortness of breath No fever I did not have this before the Biopsy so I am somewhat concerned. I did and do walk about 1 1/2 miles twice a day think it is the activity? I have my appointment tomorrow and will tell the Dr. just a lillte scared about it today.

Whenever/wherever we have a puncture anywhere, a clot must form to stop the bleeding and the bleeding eventually stops and a scab forms. Well, maybe that happened but your walking expands your lungs and makes the clot break off before it scabs, so maybe ask the doctor if you should not walk as far/fast and maybe only once a day (for a while)?

So thank you you seem to hit on target. Frank (aka) "stew" |
