I have been having an extremely severe wet whooping cough that has lasted for 7 months. I do not smoke, and I am 6 months pregnant. I have been on Antibiotics, and even been to the hospital at least 40 times, and have gotten many IVs. i do not know what to do for this cough. I have tuberculosis,pneumonia, bronchitis, and very deep wet bronchial infection as well as a severe lung infection. I feel my chest rattle when I breathe and cough. And when I was auscultated, I had a croaking sound from my lungs, and sometimes when i cough, i can hear it myself, and it causes my cough to last so long, that I turn red from not being able to breathe and eventually even blue. Nothing seems to help with this damn cough.
Ecg,x-ray chest pa view,sputum for AFB and microscopy is advised to the patient.
