Chest Pain & Phlegm

2018-02-11 22:55:26
I had bad allergies all fall. Around Thanksgiving, I developed some sinus congestion along with some mental fog, light cough, fatigue and lots of phlegm. All through January I was fatigued, everything else went away except the phlegm and a tightness in my chest developed. I've been on 10 days of antibiotics and a chest xray, and still today in February I have chest tightness and am coughing up phlegm mostly in the morning.
