Chest infection?

2018-09-08 21:51:57
Iv had what I thought was a bad cold & a dry cough. It was on & off for week but not the cough. Last Monday I went to a pharmacist as I needed something more than cold & flu to get me through work. They give me Rekidene (dry cough) and armagaurd (immune booster) which seemed to work for a dry cough. I now have had a mucus build up so intense I can’t sleep or breath properly at times. Moments of sweat & chills. Such a bad cough. I got a cough bottle yesterday that I take 4 times a day with water
