Hi not being able to breathe properly is a medical emergency and you must seek help. Maybe it was a mistake not staying in hospital?

Hi Poppy19. Can you call someone to be with you? Panicking will make your symptoms worse so please try to stay calm. If you are really worried that your health is deteriorating please ring 111 for advice or 999 for help.

Two great replies Poppy so hope you have some help. Try to stay calm and hope you get a diagnosis very soon because then you can have the correct medication and start feeling better.

Thinking of you as always. Xxxx

OK well have started to cough up green thick phlegm. Is this a good sign maybe from taking the steroids an antibiotics. Each time this happens my breathing eases off a bit. Xx

It's good to get rid of that phlegm, there a lot of bacteria in it. It certainly is a good sign, show the meds are working. Let me know how you are doing.take care 😊 xx Bernadette

Stone wrote on an earlier post today about a method to help cough up the phlegm, known as huffing. There are lots of videos on YouTube to explain it, here is one:
