Gp appointment

[EnlightenedOwl]

I am just emerging from having had really unpleasant virus which has left me with awful hacking cough which leaves me retching and struggling for breath. I actually had bronchitis last year feels a bit like that I wouldn't normally go to gp so early for cough but it really is bad. Just worried about wasting gp time going in with this?

What have you taken so far OP?

You won't be wasting GP time especially if you are struggling for breath. You might have a chest infection requiring antibiotics so please make an appointment before it gets any worse. I hope you feel better soon

Thanks. I've tried steam etc but not the usual cough remedy as last time honestly went through the entire pharmacy shelf and nothing worked
