Do you have a camera? Does it take videos? Then take a video of you coughing up blood. Take a video of anything else as "proof."

You aren't upsetting me, your family and doctors are. Maybe you need to ask them if they want to watch as damage is done to your body. Or ask if they think it's okay for you to die (not that you would!). It is their responsibility to take care of you. Legal, moral and ethical responsibility. Or ask them what they think their (Duke's) risk managers will say when they ignored someone with severe headaches who was coughing up blood.

Or ask them on what planet any of this is normal.

And you don't know for sure if Duke will say coughing up blood is normal. If they do, they should be fired. Call their ER and ask them what you should do. Have them speak to your aunt and uncle if they say you should go in. Ask to whom you are speaking with so you can tell the ER doctor who told you to go in. Document, track and make them accountable.

My brain can't handle any more of this . . . I can't imagine how you feel. I personally think you are having drug interaction #@!!. It's simply not funny.
