Which led me to wonder what's going to happen when my next bi-annual dose of bronchitis shows up. Last time, it was so bad within 3 days that I had to get a taxi to the GP's surgery. Will I end up in hospital with pneumonia?
This happened to me 3-4 years ago; a year of chest infections every 6 weeks, on the dot. You could set your watch by them.
All treated with antibiotics, but the last one ended in pneumonia, and then 9 months under the surveillance of the local chest clinic, X-rays, lung function tests, etc. God knows what it would have been like without antibiotics. 'Cured' by changing asthma drugs.

I am finally getting round to decent training.
Real chest infections aren't that difficult to diagnose, are they? Get well soon, all of you poor afflicted.
