I have a doctor's appointment today.
I am starting to stress out.
I have been wheezing lately and I am scared to find out why. I had a leftover cold in my chest before my last chemo....then at chemo (as you all know) I had an allergic reaction. I know the reaction can result in a pulminary embelisum if gone on too long. I am not sure if I reached that state or not (I don't think I did) however, I couldn't breathe, and I know that for certain. My friend who had one (a P.E) got a blood clot in her lungs after from the allergic reaction. I am worried.
The last 2 nights I start wheezing....cold and cough medicine doesn't seem to help and I get a heavy feeling in my chest like I can't get a full breath. It's freaky, and now this morning, I am still wheezy. Of course (why!!??) I googled it, and up came explanations to wheezing....
1. Asthma
2. Pnemonia from a leftover cold
3. Bronchitis from a leftover cold
4. Lung Cancer
Man! Why do I do this to myself. I have never wanted pnemonia so badly!! ;) All in all, I think it will be ok, but the problem is, I have a low immunity to fight infection and, a leftover cold may turn into something more serious if my body won't fight it. So, I am off to the doc at 1:50 today...and from there I may have to have another chest Xray.
Wish me Luck!!!
