You, Amy (saveferris), and I have so much in common--- high pfts, hemoptysis with periods, and have been continuously treated like our hemop is due to infection... so interesting. I look forward to hearing how mirena works for you both! We are not on any birth control at the moment (we are not "trying" to get pregnant... but not trying to not get pregnant either <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">) So glad we found each other!

I just had my first scary hemop episode, probably about 1/4 cup total of bright red blood. It is usually just a trace in with my mucus. It lasted about 20 min and stopped. I was debating going to the ER for a CT scan to check it out but I decided not to bc it did stop, and I feel ok. What you girls are saying sounds like me too. I am on my period right now as well, so I believe it could be related. After the heavy hemop stopped I actually passed a stringy clot that looked like a period clot, it was like fleshy/tissue. I'm wondering if it was the endometriosis. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE and experiences. I often find more on here than what a doctor can tell me, and I don't know anyone else with CF so this helps tremendously.
