I had flu 3 years ago it took 18 months for my chest to feel normal again it could just be you need time for your body to fight the infection . Specialist treatment can only be a good thing perhaps if I'd seen one I might have been better quicker .
The word 'Specialist' mean that they are a specialist in respiratory conditions and they will know all the latest treatments and will be able to help you better than an ordinary doctor.
You don't have to go if you don't want to of course. x
