Bronchitis

[WhenShallIShare]

I think I have bronchitis (hacking cough, yellow phlegm, breathless, completely wiped out) and am 19 weeks pregnant.

Is there anything I can take other than paracetamol? I was awake most of the night last night as couldn’t breathe from the coughing 😢

You poor thing. No there's nothing else medicine wise that will help but lemon and honey in warm water can soothe your throat, and book yourself a covid PCR test.
Ring 111 if your shortness of breath is getting worse or you get chest pain. Hope you're feeling better soon.

Thank you. Yes I did a PCR test yesterday and it came back negative so at least that’s one thing ruled out!
Annoyingly I’ve got gestational diabetes so honey is a no-go but I’ll try lemon on it’s own. Thank you.
