hello

After lots of back and forth at the Dr’s and various hospital departments. haematology found me to have a raised eosinophilia level and asked for me to be referred to the allergy clinic they referred me back to ENT with a suspected fungal lung disease, ENT found my frontal and ethmoid sinus to be opaque so waiting for a specialist consultant for that but I have had a persistent cough since November I have had 3 sets of antibiotics and steroids and I now have a worse cough, coughing up a yellow/brown phlegm my pulse is over a 100 and my oxygen is 94 ish 4 days ago I saw my GP and he agreed to sending a sputum sample to the hospital so I’m waiting for that but I’m also feeling a lot worse I have hardly slept for a week any ideas how long I should wait for the sample as I don’t want to go to the GP for more antibiotics if they aren’t working

Thank you

Sara
