Coughing up Blood

So I have had this weird lung problem for a couple of years, on and off, and lately it has been on more than ever. I was born a month early so my lungs weren't developed, and I was put on drugs to make em grow and they think this might be the problem, but they gave me an inhalor and sent me on my way.

A few days ago, I breathed in a lot of dust and I started coughing and I coulddnt stop. Now, I am still coughing, having a hard time breathing and I can taste blood in my mouth. So, I have to go to the doctor tommorow, but I dont have time. Finals are coming. Fast. And because of this I am in an unusally foul mood, so please excuse me. And wish me luck, last time I went to the doctors, they couldnt find find anything so that meant nothing was wrong. Stupid doctors.

Firstly, go to a different doctor. As badass as coughing up blood may be it probably isn't a sign of good things if you are doing it multiple times.

Second, is it only when you breathe in alot of dust? If so then it probably isn't too serious, if it happens randomly for no reason then refer to my first point.

Third, sounds like a good excuse to get out of your finals.

I wish it was an excuse but I am a 4.0 student and nothing could get me away from those d*mn things.

No, I breathed the dust and since then it has been happening.

I have heard a lot of things called badass, but never spewing bodily fluids out of one mouth.

You don't have to censor "damn."

i agree, if he can't find anything wrong, then he's missing something.

I'll just have to change it. DAMN

Damn, 4.0? I don't think my GPA totalled that my 4 years in college.

And no one wants to mess with someone who is spewing blood out of their mouth, ever see a KISS concert? Badass

I guess thats true. I went to Mayhem this summer, so yep, pretty badass.

If I am obsessive about anything it my grades, I have no money, so my tiny scholarship depends on that, the rest I have to owe. And now they are trying to pass a 1% tution tax. I could kill em.

Tuition tax? Whose bright idea was THAT?

I have a 4.4 for the year thus far, but my career GPA is a 3.5. I'm hauling a$$ to get as much money as i can wring from 'em.

Our Mayor. He is an ass. A big one. Like college students have so much money....why doesnt he tax food bnks and churches too! Asshole....

Maybe he should tax fast food. It'd probably rake in more money.

I know, tax the people trying to help themselves, better themselves. A group of us went to city hall today to protest. Here is a link to some of our speaches.

maybe your lung problems are gods way to saying "survival of the fittest"

Oh God, you're from Pittsburgh?

(I've been going through my own "stupid doctor" saga.) How many days is "a few"? If it's been more than 4 days, I would strongly suggest squeezing another visit to a doctor (or at least the school nurse) into your schedule before you end up squeezing an ambulance ride into it.

Tuition tax? Interesting idea...

There is a small tax on prepared food in our area. It has brought in some decent revenue without a whole lot of complaint. (soup kitchens of course are exempt, because 2% of 0 is still 0) Maybe they really should try that instead.

I take it you know the city of hell, WBN. You from around here?

Thanks for the advise Ghost, I am planning on going thsi weekend. The nurse cost 40 bucks and I am broke as sh*t. Oh well, this weekend it will be.

The soup kitchen/church tax was sarcasm, but prepared food sounds better than tutition, we all have no money and I have to work two jobs just to pay for basic bills now.

Wow.

I do live in the southwestern corner of the state, yes. Thankfully I don't have to claim Young Luke as my mayor.

"Young" is his first name?
