chest infection?

I suspect i've got a chest infection as I'm very wheezy at night and coughing up load of phlegm (sorry tmi). Is it worth trying to get an appt at my GP's? Especially as I won't get seen until next week unless I say its an emergency and I don't think a chest infection really is an emergency?

Cheers
