This year I got very sick three times. Once in April/May where I got a severe respiratory infection, again in October where I got a very bad cold and November I got COVID.
My lungs are fucking scrap. I can't stop coughing with mucus all the time. I have low energy. It's very difficult.
And forget about seeing a doctor. You can't see anyone in clinics anymore, ERs are full and hospitals are at 200% capacity.
I started using symbicort for post infection inflammation and irritation. I haven't had a cough longer than a day for years now. Existing over the counter cough medicine should be outlawed for lack of efficacy.
Still get sick though ๐ฎโ๐จ
I'll have to ask my doctor is symbocort is right for me.
(God that sounds like a medicine commercial.)
Haha it sounds silly, but you're right to get them to check for contraindications ๐
