I have the flu, and i puked blooded about 10 minutes ago. Not a lot, but all the water in my toilet was red. I dont have medical insurance for another 3 months. What should I do? Hospital,  or wait it out?

Sucks you don't have medical insurance, but you really need to go to the ER. Puking blood can be very very serious.

If you know anyone who is a doctor or nurse or something like that, you should call and ask them what it might be. If you can't call anyone you should probably go to the hospital. But I'm not sure what it is so maybe you're fine?

yeah puking blood is serious no matter what it is if you dont treat it, but internal bleeding is obv real bad. theres a time to ask the ns doctor, but this case is not one of them. as mentioned before, see a doctor/go to er/ask someone qualified that you know personally
