Title: Bronchitisssss
Post by: SweetyPie on March 08, 2018, 10:04:38 AM

Hi all,
I mentioned in another post that I came down with bronchitis. That was 2 weeks ago and I took antibiotics. I don't have a fever anymore, but on Tuesday I had chest pain during dialysis and I started to have the same chest symptoms I started with in the beginnging of  bronchitis. Feels my chest is congested and if I have a cough. Why isn't it going away? Im extremely tired all the time. I need a nap all the time. I'll get up for breakfast eat then want to sleep again. Ive been drinking tea because of the caffeine to keep me up. I feel useless if all im doing is sleeping. And if anyone knows me I don't sleep much. I'm glad my appetite is back because I did lose some weight when I wasn't feeling good and I don't wanna go back to that because Transplant surgery could happen anytime I was told I needed to gain weight :(

I don't know much about Bronchitis. But I do know that your body does much of its repairing while you sleep. So if you are forcing yourself to stay awake when your body is trying to make you loose consciousness, then that might be why you are taking so long to get better.
