What Causes Wheezing Along With Cough And Headache?
Hi-I recently went to the Er because I was having trouble breathing. Wheezing , coughing very frequently, upset stomach/aching, headache,feel like im working really hard to breathe. They took a chest xray, temp & blood pressure. Told me it was bronchitis and gave me a scrip for 3 days of prednisone-no change in symptoms or how I feel. It s been about 3-4 weeks I still feel awful. Any suggestions? I do have allergies and asthma- I take zyrtec or allegra ,have inhalers, use humidifier and hepa filter at home. My ribs hurt the most ,but my whole body is achy and sore. Any suggestions would be great-thanks!

Hello,
Based on your history, being asmathic and having the same situation even after 3 -4 weeks I think that you need to get a new evaluation with X-ray and should take an antibiotic.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
