I had a bout of Flu which has left me with a dry cough, spiking tempretures, sweats, chest pain, breathlessness and fatigue.

The Flu started about the 14/2/13. I have had 2 courses of anibiotics for a chest infection. My GP sent me to the hospital to be checked for PE and various blood tests but they found nothing. I am still unwell and have been unable to work.

Can anyone help?

Have they done an x-ray? You need to pursue with your GP. If you know all's not well then lsiten to your body & ask for second opinion.

Yes I've had 2 chest x-rays. the first showed infection the second did not. But thank you. I suppose I will have to go back to my GP.

You definitely should go back to your GP. Remember you are doing him a favour. Without you, he would be out of work.

Thank you I will.

I wouldn't be here today if I'd listened to my GP, who missed pneumonia & multiple bilateral PEs. A & E spotted what GP missed. If you're worried try another GP. Best of luck.

Many thanks for your help. I will try another GP at the practice.

Go to GP. Take hammer. Beat him into submission. If you are short, take ladder.

Supposed to be going back to work tomorrow, Breathless better today, but a tempreture again yesterday. Will see GP again. Thanks for your answer.
