Xray

I recently had a chest infection and had steroids and antibiotics. Felt better but still coughing. Although I have been coughing for the last four years when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I am also a bronchial asthmatic. I cough up yellow phlegm all the time.

I recently had xray a week ago and have been called back as urgent. Im very worried.

Oh Brierley, I'm sorry to hear that. 😌 Is there treatment you can have? I'm afraid I don't have experience of this.

Take care of yourself & I hope you get well soon 🌸

Worrying when you don't know why they have called you back. I am hoping it is an infection which needs dealing with. Pease let us know.
