I m an almost 74 year old woman, who has had very good health for all my life. However, for the last few months, I haven t had as much energy as usual, and I have felt like I didn t really have a cold, but my head felt kind of heavy, and when I coughed, I would cough up very sticky phylum. Now, when I cough, the phylum has little spots of what looks like maybe dried spots of blood - it s not bright red, but more of a brownish red. The spots don t dissolve.
