I have had a cough now for over 2 weeks, saw my GP friday for some iron tabs and mentioned my cough, he listened to my chest and said it was clear. He said coughs can last 3 weeks. It will be 3 weeks this weekend and im fed up of it, its not shifting at all, if anything id say its gone from a dry tickly cough to more chesty, I am coughing stuff up esp in the morning which is clear/yellow. Am I daft to worry? my sons have had a nasty cough that lasted well over a month and my hubby has had a cough a week but mine seems to be more chesty.
I keep freting ive chronic sinusitis aswell, they say it can spread to the brain (meningitis) or to facial bones and the bone on the left side of my face, just below temple (jaw bone??) is sore to touch at times and I keep getting a niggle of tooth ache in a top tooth. With me having a slight congested nose and cough of course im convinced ive got chronic problems. I had a CT scan last year that showed all was ok but ive had acute sinusitis twice this year so im worrying its started since, arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Surely id be ozzing green gunk and having awful headaches if I had that?? can anyone slap some sense into me??
I also noticed I have a small lump in my temple area on the left side. I only noticed it because I had a sore spot on the side of my head that was really sore ( I am sooooooo spotty at the moment, lol) and I noticed this hard lump in my temple, I freaked out of course:winks: It feels hard like bone almost and id say its no bigger than a petit pois, lol! probably half the size but its still there. My hubby says im daft to worry about that and id look even more daft going to the dr about it but me being me im thinking its a growth or something. Am I being daft? I mean it could be just part of me and always been there but I don't know because I don't usually go feeling, lol!
All of this and ive noticed some glands up in my jaw and by my ear im freting my pants off:winks: I have a blood test this week for my iron, no full bloods this time for me, lol! but my last lot were fine 3 mths back.
