I have borderline viral pneumonia. Diagnosed by chest examination, nothing more. I am quite unwell, with severe aches, pains, headache and never ending cough which is dry and leaves me gasping for air after a bout.
I also have the sorest throat in the planet, literally feels like nails are being driven into it every minute.
I haven't slept for 3 nights, I manage 30 minutes asleep (sitting up) then about 3 hours of coughing and discomfort.
I have night nurse - can I use it?
if NOT (and as an alternative) I have Tramodol which I was prescribed after a bad fall earlier in the year - I didn't take it then because I was worried about the side effects, can I take it now? (I still worry, but I feel so ill, that side effects don't mean as much)
thanks.
