On the latest of DS's illnesses (seriously relentless the last 7 weeks) he now has a nasty cough (I mean hacking, no sleep for a week, shockingly loud) the cough started last Saturday & his cold started a day or two later.
Went to the Doc's today & to my surprise he was given 5 days worth of ABs as Nurse saw one of his tonsils was inflamed & really red.
He has had nasty coughs before but never had ABs associated with it. He's still having big coughing fits, despite using an inhaler. I just can't believe we are on day 6 & no further forward. Appreciate the ABs are not for the cough or cold but just his throat.. he's himself for about 50% of the day.. then goes downhill, emotional, tired, not eating, saying throat & tummy hurt. Anyone had anything like this recently, any light at the end of the tunnel? TIA
