Reactive airway : Can be reactive airway disease. I hope the bronchoscopy was done by a pulmonologist. He could order some respiratory treatments with albuterol to see if you get better from wheezing, and a CT to rule out cancer

Accepted Answer

Well, : Well, smoking in feces could introduce a number of bacteria to the lungs, that belong in the gut, not the lung.  If you develop pneumonia or sepsis that could be quite dangerous to your health. At this point, definately recommend that you see a doctor to have your lungs checked out.

Question 5

is this normal or dangerous everytimemy friend shoots meth she pukes/coughs up blood??

Accepted Answer

Why do you ask?: I'm most concerned about you -- or that anyone would think it is "normal" either to vomit or cough up blood, or to inject methamphetamine in the first place. "Friends" like this will drag you down. Urge her to get help with both her habit -- which will destroy her and hurt those who care about her -- and a physician's care for what could be TB that endangers those around her. Please do this.

Question 6

coughing  up boold after getting high of meth what does it mean?

Accepted Answer

Meth is Bad!: It means that Meth is Bad! It adds absolutely NO VALUE to your life and will kill you as sure as a bullet and sometimes as rapidly. This bleeding should resolve with time and clean living. Wish you well with your addiction treatment.

Question 7

i cough up phlegm after every meal?

Accepted Answer

Stuff going up/down: Sounds like acid reflux to me.

Acid reflux or "silent reflux" commonly causes throat clearing, sensation of something stuck in throat, voice changes, post-nasal drip or phlegm in throat, and cough. Stay hydrated and see your doc!
