    Having coughing and breathing issues
    I went to my doctor 3 weeks ago, I was told I had a sinus infection which irritated my asthma. I was given antibiotics and steroid shots, and scripts and told to use the nebulizer every 4 hours. 6 days later, no better, pulled muscles in my stomach from coughing, go back to doctor. was given cough medicine, antibiotic/steroid shot again, and new antibiotics and use nebulizer evey 4 hours. I am worse.

    I called the doctor told them I have used all my antibiotics, still have the sinus infection, and pressure on top of coughing fits which lead to choking, fighting to get a breath. They will not do anything until I go back, but have no appointments until next Friday, I am now getting weaker by the day.

    I really wish we could help, but sadly we can't. There are no doctors on this site, and no doctor would diagnose or prescribe online, they could lose their license by doing that.

    If you feel your doctor isn't doing enough, I'd seek a second opinion. That's really the only option you have. You really won't find answers online.

    Good luck to you. :)
