More than just a Cough...
I finally went to the Doctor today, after coughing for 9 weeks now. It started around July 22nd, maybe a bit earlier, and back then, I had the flu, cough, etc... At that time, I was contagious, as I got a few others sick. Over several weeks, with Advil, Buckleys, among other over the counter medications, I thought I was getting better. However, the weeks following, I still had a stubborn cough, it got better then it came back. It was a brutal cycle...Even though I've taken it easy(a bit) doing cardio, I wasn't fully recovered. So this morning, I made an appointment to see the Doctor, took an hour off from work at the end of the day to see her. Turns out I have mild Bronchitis, well I guess a month ago, it was not just a "mild case"...but since I've had it for sometime now, it was starting to heal, but at a slower rate. Probably some scarring on my lung tissue???
Anyways, the good news is that I'm on antibiotics and the side affect is stomach aches among other symptoms, which I may say HURT a lot. Hopefully, the symptons will go away...I was to take a double dose tonight, with food, and for the next four nights at 7pm, to take the usual dose.
Although it's only been several hours since I've been on it, I do feel my lungs feeling better.:)
