Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was in Monday morning to see my doctor because of a horrible constant cough. Worse even at night. She said she was going to treat me for pneumonia and was given an inhaler and an antibiotic. Last night wasn't horrible, but tonight I can't stop coughing again. I've tried everything from sitting in a steamy bathroom and running humidifiers. Cough syrup does absolutely nothing for it. Should I wait and give it more time or should I head in? Mind you, I have had a pulmonary embolism in 2010 do to a gene mutation
