Hi all
Now i'm trying very hard not to panic and get paranoid, but 3 weeks ago i went down with a chest infection, (i suffer them at this time of year) since then i have had three lots of antibiotics, one lot after the other, and i've taken my last tablet tonight (thank goodness)
In the past i have been a lot worse with them and have had to stay in bed, but this time i really didn't feel ill, not well, but not ill...if that makes sense?
What is worrying me now is that my voice every now and then sounds as it i have a sore throat, it's really crocky, but my throat is fine...could this be the medication i have been taking?
My brother-in-law's voice went like this and he ended up with throat cancer, so you can see why i'm worried. I also know that when i see my GP he will want me to have a chest xray which i will dread, not the xray, but the waiting for the results, and why i dread it is because my sister died of lung cancer 4 years ago.
I would really like some help here, before it really gets to me and the panic sets in.
thanks
Trish
