Chest infection without steroids
Hi, I am recently diagnosed with asthma - back in September with an awful 12 days in hospital after a cold became bronchitis. Was on oxygen etc. I am a man in early 40s. I had another cold in early November which afterwards led to coughing up thick green stuff and bad wheezing. Took steroids and antibiotics

Very fast onset of Pneumonia! It’s a long story; are you comfortable…
My husband is on W&W for CLL, though he may start treatment soon. Well, he had a heavy cold (as did I) and though it lingered abit we weren’t too concerned. Was still coughing up green mucus abit but he wasn’t concerned (I was and told him but … well, he felt better he said) Day before Christmas Eve

Headcold and Cough
Good evening Everyone. Hope you all had a good Christmas. I know its difficult to give individual suggestions. But I came out to Spain for Christmas and New year and now have a cough and headcold. Which is producing a lot of mucus from my blocked nose. I am using Sterimar nasal spray. But not helping

I seem to be more ill since starting Levo
Before Levo I was hardly ever ill, rarely had a cold or flu but since starting Levo I’ve had the flu quite badly and I’ve had a constant cough since going on about 2 months. Now I’ve got a stinking cold over the holidays. Has anybody else had this or is this just a co-incidence?

Post Covid for a Cllier
Came down with Covid 7 days ago - like a horrid bout of flu. Managed to get anti virals sent by the hospital on the second day at 10pm- great service Chelsea and Westminster hospital. Now tested negative yesterday but still got heavy cold and sore throat and feel weak. When will it go away??

I'm really tired with all these ideas about lung cancer
I was diagnosed with pneumonia, I don't know what stage of pneumonia I have, it was not mentioned in the x-ray results. The results were sent to my GP, and he prescribed me medications to treat pneumonia. I think it is difficult to know what stage I have, even if I thought about this. This is because

Not had a very good Christmas
Christmas day I came down with this flu thing. Cough and cold feeling unwell but temperature was ok because our immune system isn't good do we get this sort of thing worse and will it last longer?

Finished Venetoclax, then Covid
My doctor prescribed Venetoclax after two rounds of chemo/immuno infusions to fight CLL. I felt great! Swimming half a mile, felt strong. Then bronchitis, pneumonia, and Covid. Was hospitalized and released in 6 days. But my home convalescence is not what I expected. Weakness, coughing, general severe

Cold virus
I’ve had PMR for two years now and on 8mg pred attempting my second tapering cycle. I’ve have a really heavy cold now for over a week which started as a mild cold for two weeks before that. I’m wondering if my immune system is reducing my ability to get on top of this and allowing it to prevail much

Mum grew her angel wings
hi all, I just wanted to write a post on here as I sadly lost my mum last week after a 7 year battle with PSP. Although it was pneumonia that took her in the end. I just wanted to write on here to say, give your loved ones suffering an extra big hug this Christmas and remember to be their loved one

Flu, antibiotics and Levo
I’m recovering from quite a bad flu I’m having to take antibiotics 4 times a day, now this is my question. I’m having very severe headache they are worse after my dose of levothyroxine which I’m leaving the 4 hour gap with. Could it just be the antibiotic hasn’t knocked the headache part of the illness

Baseline figure from lung function test
After 10 days post hospital admission with pneumonia I went to have a lung function test at my local hospital. The result of the test was 438 a new baseline. My usual top peak flow is 500 (very unused as it doesn't match my height, sex and ethnicity) I should be blowing 420. One explanation was that

Bronchitis
I have been coughing on and off for about a month, a few days ago I started feeling really ill. I phoned the surgery and was given an appointment with a nurse practitioner who confirmed it was bronchitis and not a chest infection and gave a prescription for a salbutamol inhaler. Should I be concerned

Hi all - I posted on here recently as I had an asthma flare up whilst in India. Well, couldn't make it home without seeing a doctor 😕 He said it was pollution induced and gave me a short course of methylprednisolone, omeprazole, anti histamines, cough medicine and antibiotics!!! He also said he couldn't
