I heard that inhaling the vapors of vodka makes them come up out of your lungs.

lp, Gigi used to post about lung worms and Dr K speaks of this often in lectures. I'll have to search in gigi old post, memory lapse.

I'm interested too. Gross I know.

47 threads with lungworm in it. Gigi old #259. Lots of reading lp. She also had some urls attached with Dr K info.

Yup... Gross. Most often a problem in dogs, cats & livestock, as I undestand it.

I'm so glad I don't have lung issues and seen these pictures....I would freak out.

But I do have something suspicious that happens with my nose every few months. I do have stringy very thin blood things that came from my nose when I blow into tissue.

I drive them away with tea tree oil, undiluted on q-tip and up my nose for several days. Strange thing is it's never both sides at one time.

It's moves from one side and then happens on other nostril.
