A member asked:

I have nodules in my lungs, have not had a bronchoscopy because im on plavix. im having spasm like pains in my chest difficulty breathing?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nodules: What you really need to do is visit your pulmonologist and asses the risk of stopping the plavix vs going undiagnozed. Nodules in the lungs at you age may be malignant

Very good evening doctors. How would I know if occasional blood in my saliva/sputum with no cough at all and no feeling of fever could be a pulmonary/lung cancer problem or a gum/dental issue? I am on Plavix 75mg and aspirin 81mg and I have stents?
