Last month I coughed up chunks of Blood in my phlem . After going to the ER and getting a Chest CT Scan with contrast they said I had Phenmonia and gave me 2 Antibiotics. After a few days the Blood was gone. Fast forward a month to 3 days ago I woke up feeling crap in my lungs so I coughed it up and there was Blood globs again and it's been going on for 3 days. I'm terrified the CT scan missed something like Cancer or something. I'm really worried help please :weep:

It could still be from the pneumonia but I would advise you get checked out by your doctor. You may need more antibiotics.

I was reading that doctors can mistake the CT scan and think its Phenmonia but it ends up being a Tumor !! Is this true?????

I don't think that is true, they will be able to tell the difference.

I had a problem with coughing up blood and I thought the worse and had a ct scan and it was not cancer or TB but i reckon you should go back to Dr for peace of mind.
