Hello
Welcome
Be sure that the blood is in sputum not from oesophagus.
Consult an ENT surgeon.
Sometimes the blood in sputum is normal due to increased vascularity but one should not neglect any pathology.
Sinus tachycardia can be common occasionally but persisting should be taken care of by a cardilogist
Avoid anxiety
Get your thyroid function tests done
Best wishes
