At wits end

Hi Gerard, could you maybe phone your surgery & see if the results are available yet?

My advice would be to go to GP & see if you can get answers.

Take care & get well soon 🌻

Going today not hopeful can't understand why he's not giving me any medication to help tks

[Jessy11 in reply to Hidden]

Maybe he's waiting for results but I would have expected you to be on a course of antibiotics if you've definitely got a chest infection.

Hope you get help today. Please let us know how you get on 🌷

Horrid! I agree with Jessy - go back to GP before the weekend and just ask for help. That's what they're there for.

Be well! Sue x

My problems started with a dry cough four years ago. For about seven months my cough was dry and then, seems like overnight, my cough became productive, and has been ever since. After an x ray and ct scan I was diagnosed with bronchiectasis and difficult asthma.
