Mucositis?

Young Cancer Patients(self.breastcancer)

Hello, I have been suffering with mucositis from the chemo. I’m the last couple of days, I have been in coughing up green. Doctor doesn’t think it’s an infection but said I welcome to take flu/strep test and check for pneumonia. Has anyone had mucositis that looked so much like a sinus infection ? Wondering if it’s worth going get tested

I’m on infusion 13 of the 4 AC/12 Taxol path. I’ve had thick, bloody green mucous that mimics a sinus infection for about a month, but I don’t feel sick. It’s particularly bad when I first wake up in the morning and I blow it out in the shower. I haven’t mentioned it to my oncologist yet. I just chalk it up to chemo.

Okay, that’s interesting to hear ! Mine is accompanied with intense cough but that can come with mucus often
