I know people arnt doctors but i just dont know if im being dramatic or not
Last week i became really ill, i had swollen glands under my neck and chin and armpits. It started with a coldsore so i just assumed i was run down
All swollen glands went apart from one ubder my armpit which has stayed and is hard. It was painful when it first appeared but not painful now. Since then ive had a chest infection of some sort which isnt getting better. I had an emergancy doc appointment on wednesday because i couldnt breathe properly, she gave me a blue inhaler and a brown one with an AeroChamber and im going back today to drop off a flem sample ( dont think ive spelt flem right )
But today i am really struggling. Even going up and down stairs i am struggling to catch a full breath. I was walking back from nursery today and felt somthing move slighty in or near lowest rib on my right side, since then it hurts when i breathe or cough
My gp listened to my chest and said if it got any worse she would send me to hospital so that really hasnt helped me wonder if i should go but im aware the NHS is dtretched enough as it is and dont want to waste their time
I feel terrible, ive had zero energy for days and not being able to breathe properly is making it difficult to sleep, i helped DP move a 2 seater couch last night from one side of the room to the othrr and had to sit back down to catch my breath, im worrying myself
