Still unwell since mid Nov/Pleurisy/anxiety

Have posted previously about having Pleurisy after a string of chest infections, diagnosed in Nov. I still have chest pain, everytime I think I feel better I try to do something, nothing major, then feel rubbish for days.

The dr also thinks I may have asthma&have been given inhalers which have been increased in strength and dosage 3 times.

Dr also mentioned I may be suffering from stress and anxiety, due to work. I have been worried about being off work as I have so much to do, i'm a teacher working part-time, but had been feeling overwhelmed with it before going off. She thinks this also may be a cause of being ill. I've been stressed with work before but usually just get through it. I'm due back on Mon but I really don't feel fit enough for it&worrying myself sick what to do about it.

I'm normally laid back and don't let things bother me but I suppose lately I have been letting things get to me.

Whoops hadnt finished posting, pressed button by mistake! Wasn't even sure was going to post at all, just felt I needed to get it out and write it all down. Don't want to bother family&friends with it all, done enough moaning about being ill.

Just don't really know what's going on&if it is all stress related and all symptoms are in my head.

Sorry for rambling!
