Bronchitis, want more opinions?

I have had a cough sometimes with wheezing and a cold for almost 2 weeks. Does this sound like bronchitis?

I don't smoke and I don't have a fever. I went to the doctor but all he said was come back in a week if its the same.

I would say that you have bronchitis. Sometimes it takes a while to get over it. The only way to get over it is to antibotics.

I had bronchitis last year.....and I was f***in' miserable with it!!! I never go to the doctor for a cold, but I totally felt I had to because I felt so completely out of it when I had it. I probably shouldn't have even been driving....that's how out of it I was, and felt.

Some symptoms he asked me about, before diagnosing it....

- when blowing my nose, or coughing any up....is it yellow(as oppose to clear)? **I don't look, so I didn't know....but he looked in my throat and found that**

- are you wrestless when trying to sleep? or....get hot, then cold, having to throw the sheets on and off. Which I totally had the night before I went to the doctor.

I even ended up getting a major ear ache during mine....and then couldn't hear out of that ear for like, a week and a half when it finally cleared.

- oh yeah, and he asked me if I could hear the rattling in my chest when I would breathe, which I basically couldn't because I couldn't freakin' hear out of the one ear, lol.

He gave me anti-biotics though :o)

Do you smoke?

Have you had a fever?

2 weeks isn't necessarily a long time for bronchitis. But if it's been this long, why haven't you been to a doctor?

phantom_lady12032

it sounds more like asthma, i would have it checked out by a doctor, i had bronchitis as a child and had the same symptoms, now i found out it was asthma also, you would need to be put on something to help,

Antibiotics do nothing for Bronchitis. It will usually clear up on it's own in a week or so if you take care of yourself.Drink lots of fluids, rest, eat a healthy diet and increase the humidity in your home.
