Last week it was sinus infection. This week It's a chest infection.
Gp sent me for chest xray as I was coughing up blood and gave me antibiotics.
Im still coughing up bits of blood and my breathing is all over the place.
I go from really breathless to kind of gasping, more so after a coughing fit that hurts my chest.
I've tried honey and lemon that made me sick. Boots gave me a cough bottle but so far that's not helped except make me queasy.
When I'm sick its lots of bubbles/frothy stuff (sorry for too much info)
When I breath out it sounds like the warm up sound the bagpipes make.
I just want this over with and for my kids to get a decent sleep not listening to me coughing all night. So any ideas will be greatfully received.
thankyou
