Hi,
     Cough predominantly during night time can be due to gastroesophageal reflux disease, tuberculosis, asthma, croup or congestive cardiac failure. Most patient’s with tuberculosis do not test positive but it does not mean they do not have the disease. In your case as you are experiencing sputum with blood, this needs complete evaluation. You should consult a pulmonologist for examination and CT chest for further confirmation on this. Best.
