Hi guys, so here I am again, fearing something else is happening with me... I quit smoking in the beginning of January as a new years resolution, being successful so far, the thing is my breathing is a lot worse since, I've been coughing a lot and have been having this weird dark thick phlegm with the cough, I've seen the pneumologist about this as my whole family has asthma (dad, mom, and sister) and he referred me to have some tests done to see if I have asthma, he told me is normal to experience coughing after quitting smoking, the thing is when I breathe in I feel like I can't breathe in deeply, I feel like a chest tickle or discomfort in the middle that makes me cough... He gave me some expectorant and antibiotics, I've finished the antibiotics which worked cause my phlegm is no longer dark, but still taking the expectorant,... What is really bothering me is this breathing in thing... Has anybody else feel this? And any ex smokers out here?
