Have been having slight chest pains for over a week, which I ignored , but have now started coughing up lots of phlegm, wheezing and feeling permanently breathless and under-oxygenated (I am asthmatic, but reliever is only helping a very little, and tbh I haven't had these sorts of symptoms in years). Chest hurts too Am hoping it's just bronchitis, but need info for the dr tomorrow just in case I do need ABs. TIA

My pleasure - hope that you don't need ABs, and that you feel lots better soon.
Have you done the steam and Friars Balsalm thing yet ? Clears chesty gunk like nothing else

No, but had an amazing, very very hot, steamy bath earlier. Oh it was lovely.
