I’ve had a deep productive (green phlegm) cough for 18 days. I’ve been vomiting, diarrhoea, headaches, temperature, not eating, muscle aches, and sticky eyes for 16 days now. I’ve not been able to do anything. I’m breathless but only when I get out of bed for the toilet.
I slept through Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I went to the drs a week before Christmas who said I had a UTI and a “flu like illness”. my chest was clear, but my temp was 39 ish. They said it would pass in a week.
but I’m not getting better, I’m just staying the same. I’ve had to have paracetamol and ibroprufen (sp sorry!) every 4 hours for the whole 17 days. I’ve been resting and doing nothing and I’m not better. I vomit every morning and then throughout the day if I try to eat. My cough sounds like a wet bark!
I’ve tried to get another GP appointment but I’ve been told to go to A&E as they’ve got no appointments, which is ridiculous.
anyone have experience of walking pneumonia? I’m losing the will to live and go back to work on Monday :(
