Update: repeated chest infections

[B_Asthma]

Hi all,

For those of you who have read my earlier posts regarding finding answers to why I am having so many chest infections, I have an update.

Yesterday I spoke with my GP and he gave me the x-ray results of the x-ray I had done in the A&E about 2 weeks ago. He said there was a shadow on my lower left lung and my heart appeared to be larger than it was 2 years ago. He felt the enlarged heart could be CHF.

I am scheduled to have a follow-up call with him next week and another chest x-ray in about 4 - 6 weeks. After I get the follow-up chest x-ray, I will know more.

See what your GP says next week, and do let us know what happens after the follow up chest x-ray. Thinking of you. Xxx😘

I will let you know once I hear further and I will let you know the outcome of the second chest x-ray.

I think I missed your first post, but it sounds like at least the doctor is working to see what he can do for you. It’s hard hearing these things, but I always think once you know, you know what you’re having to deal with & the medical team will do their best to help you!

Like Sassy says, wait and see what your GP says next week.

Stay safe,

Dee
