What is goin on with my chest??

Hey guys I just joined BC I need some feedback desperately. One week ago after waking up from 8 hrs of sleep I became exhausted and laid down...I ended not getting out of bed for 3 days. I figured it was the flu. That following Friday and Saturday I felt great. Sunday came and I'm back in bed but it's not the same symptoms. I can barely breathe and hurts beyond belief. It feels like someone is sitting on my chest and it's extremely tender. I have no energy and it hurts to even walk or take a shower. I don't know if this is relevant but I had a huge staph infection on my leg 3 weeks ago. I lost my insursnce but if you guys think I should go to the urgent care. I'll go.

Yes I think you need checking out as soon as possible . Sounds like you've picked up something nasty and may need ab's etc., good luck and let us know what they say, huff x

Hello Robbieroy, and a warm welcome to you,

Certainly, see someone as soon as possible. It sounds as if you haven't seen the last of the infection and need more medication to see it off. All the best, and let us know how you get on?

Yes go to the Urgent Care. It could be a lung infection or even pneumonia meaning antibiotics, urgently. Good luck. P
