Pain /emphysema

[Hometeam2016]

Hi guys I’ve had a cold it’s now coming and going I’m still bringing up small amounts of mucus when I cough , however since last week I’ve had a dull achey pain not always felt tho , at the top of my ribs (on my back ) would this pain have anything to do with lung etc when lung consultant told me after 10 months of having a ct scan that one min I was all ok next minute have centrebulor emphysema he didn’t really tell me much and now discharged me , Every morning I’m coughing it’s strange it’s only in the mornings and now this sharp pain it’s not sharp or hurting that it stops me doing stuff tho I’m trying to phone the dr but never any apt’s could it be emphysema changes or muscle prob or just because I’ve been coughing

Thank u xx

Hi Hometeam, sorry to hear of your health problems. It would be better to contact your doctor and tell him how you’re feeling. Best to get checked over. Hope things improve soon. Xxxx

Personally If you cannot get an appointment with your GP I would ring 111 for advice. Your symptoms could be due to a number of reasons which do need investigation.

You need to speak to your Dr. If you phone at the start of surgery there will probably be a queue but if it’s like my surgery they put several people on the phones so even if you’ve got sixteen or so people phoning it won’t take long to get through. You will never get peace of mind unless you talk to somebody. If it’s a phone conversation they will probably ask you to go in. They don’t like pains in the chest so be prepared.
