Hi,
i'm new to the forum. I currently have ashma which i have been having for a very long while. There have been times when it has gotten worse where it have cought a small infection in my chest resulting in my coughs to hurt in my chest. I have been prescribed antiboitics to deal with that which works.
Currently, i have a chesty cough, my flem is white and i cough about 5-10 times aday now. I am also using the brown and blue inhalers and a green inhaler called Serevent Accuhaler which has reduced my coughing to 5-10 times a day which before was 10 - 15. Everytime i breath in i feel my chests get tighter and results in a very small pain. When i cough, i also do feel a slight pain where i feel that my chest gets smaller. It is also not tickly.
I was just wondering, is it possible for me to go to my GP to arrange an appointment to go to my local hospital where i can scan my chest to see how tight it really is?? Is there technology that can do this?
Thanks
Luong
