Chronic cough and shortness of breath

by hotrod432, Jan 21, 2008 01:19PM
October 8th 2007 I got symptoms of a cough went to see my family doctor and he gave me amoxacilne...took it for 10 days....nothing...went back afew weeks latersaw another doctor in the practice she gave me the z-pack and a nasal spray...that didn't work either...went back saw a third doctor was giving amoxacile again and a chest x-ray and an inhaler....nope you guessed it nothing...went back just 3 weeks ago got to see a fourth doctor and was given a med that was 705mg. for 5 days...nothing.
The cough is dry once every 4 or 5 days I might cough up some yellow flem (phlegm)...I have had this continually since October 2007! I have asked if its allergies or asthma? What else can I expect it to be. Shortness of breath....not eally a fever chills every once in awhile. HELP....I need to get rid of this. Thank you Shawn
