Chest Pain when coughing/mucus

[Ziggy455]

This has came on since yesterday and I'm worried it's a Pulmonary Embolism. The pain is in my upper back in the middle and it hurts more when I cough. I also seem to have mucus in my throat that keeps coming back even when I clear it.

I'm so scared. I want to stop feeling like this.

I'm so scared it's a Pulmonary Embolism and I don't know why!

If it was you would probably be dead by now in all seriousness as they are pretty fatal.

It is just a chest infection but may need antiboitics if no better soon.

I know it's irrational.

My chesty cough has gone down a little, but I've woken up with another headache and pain behind my eyes when I look left and right. Christ, I just want to feel well.

I've had bronchitis, and colds.
I get very bad shoulder, back, tummy and chest pain from the coughing.
I also get a sharp chest pain when I hack up the mucous.
It's much harder to deal with when you've anxiety though.

I think they eye pain might be related to your sinuses or maybe just a sore muscle.
It can take a while to recover from a cold.
I definitely seem to be on the slower side and I'm sure the being worried used up a lot of energy.
