[How often do you have surgery? Sounds like alot. lol]


Well unfortuantly I've had shoulder surgery due to an idiot T-boned the rescue truck one day going to a call,ankle surg.,after I got neutered the sac around my Testicle swelled up with fluid and they had to remove it.Kinda like peeling a tangerine!!! LOL Mostly though I don't do any or can't deal with mind altering drugs. So anything that makes me dizzy(nitrous) I hate!!

Are you still coughing up blood?? Other than a ulcer. My guess is that when you were coughing heavily, you ruptured some blood vessels. It could be in your esophagus, stomach, or any organ that could pass blood thru the throat. If its stopped that is prob what happened. Not to worry. Any hard excursion to the body can cause this. My dad recently blew his nose too hard a ruptured some blood vessels in his right eye, look terrible as blood take awhile to dissapate.

Re: Hit an artery this morning...I think...

Damn I can't believe I wasn't around when this whole post started!!! Listen Max, 2 years ago I had the same exact thing happen to me. I shot a glut shot about 8pm and then as soon as I pushed the oil in I started to taste what the Test/Eq smelled like....within 5mins I was coughing mucus and some blood just like you were...and had extreme weezing in my chest. After a while I stopped coughing so much but still had weezing in my chest and felt like shit! Next morning I went to the Emergency Clinic and had a PA check me out which happens to be an old baseball friend from highschool...They did xrays on my chest and found fluid, Unofficially he said that I did inject some of the shot into my bloodstream and it was carried within minutes to my lungs which caused the caughing and taste sensation, as for the blood it was just because of the violent caughing I ruptured a few tiny blood vessels in my esaphogus. I was given an Albuturol inhailer and some meds for pneumonia which was basically what it caused. Officially on the record, I was diagnosed with pneumonia and released. It freaked my ass out and my w/o partner because I had just given him a shot right before I did mine. You should be ok, but I would go to the doc and get your lungs checked to be on the safe side.
