For 3 days i have been dealing with fever, cold chills, headache, and very very sore throat. then i coughed up bloody mucus, what could this be?

See below: Likely a viral illness, however, with the fevers, chills, headaches and sore throat, strep should be ruled out. I would see your doc and get checked for strep.
