My question to all of you is... She is now spitting up a string flem substance. Very similair to what she was doing before she had any chemo. We went to the oncologist and she advised us unless it is discolored there really isn't anything she recommends doing yet. Anthonys Fri, 31 Mar 2006 00:00:00 GMT My husband has nsc lung ca. He was dx'd in 7/05 and is stable on tarceva. Nonetheless he has an almost constant caugh, thought to be related to radiation esophagitis, and yes he does cough up stringly phlegm. I don't think it is anything to worry about - but then again I'm not a doctor. nee Neeharika Fri, 31 Mar 2006 00:00:00 GMT this is wierd though....she has almost always had a cough, but without the flem...the last time i remember her talking about that was back in sept oct of 05 when she was going through her chemo treatments.
