<DIV class=moz-cite-prefix>Less likely to be cancer if it started with both nostrils. In November I thought my Noelle had a respiratory infection. She had bloody mucous coming from only 1 nostril. We went through several antibiotics which didn't help, until finally she had a full oral exam under anesthesia. Needle aspirations were taken of a lump that was found, plus of her enlarged lymph nodes. All three samples came back showing cancer. <BR><BR>Clindamycin is supposed to be the best antibiotic for sinus infections, but it is also the absolutely most nasty tasting. Flavorings or sweeteners barely make a dent in the bitter taste of liquid clindamycin. If you have some, put a tiny drop on your tongue, and you'll find out fast why your cat fights it! The only thing that helps with the bitter taste is to eat or drink something immediately afterwards. I think we went through at least 4 different antibiotics with Noelle. Might have been 5. If antibiotics don't seem to do anything, then a full oral exam under anesthesia, or CT scan if you can afford it and kitty doesn't have other health issues. Or maybe an endoscopic sinus exam if there is someone in your area that can do that and has the equipment. <BR><BR>As others mentioned, humidifying the air might help no matter what the ultimate cause of the bloody discharge.<BR><BR>Marsha<BR><BR><BR>On 1/22/2016 9:05 PM, Kelley S wrote:<BR></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>Both nostrils. Looks like the snot may be yellow underneath, but hard to tell when bloody.</DIV>

We got her started eating again and she has gained 1/2 pound - from 6.0 to 6.5 (she is a small cat, but I'd rather see her at 7).<BR><BR>Anyway, she is now sneezing blood. I took her in to the vet Saturday and he tried one antibiotic, took her back on Wed and he gave her another antibiotic, which I am probably going to have to go rebuy tomorrow as I've managed to lose the bottle.<BR><BR>Anyway - she is now sneezing blood and has a very little bit of dried matter in the corners of her eyes. She is eating, drinking, pottying, playing fine. But she is still sneezing blood - sometimes a fine spray and sometimes hunks of bloody mucus which is very unnerving.<BR><BR>Has anyone had to deal with this?<BR><BR>Kelley and Coco<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE><BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Felvtalk mailing list<BR>Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org<BR>http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org<BR></DIV>
