How Can Chest Congestion And Bronchitis Be Treated?
I had chest cough bring up colored mucus for 3 weeks when saw doctor diagnosing bronchitis. On day 4 of zithromicin and today began vomiting and diarrhea, fever of 100, body aches and pain in stomach unable to keep anything down. Cough is much better. Wondering if these are related symptoms or if I was just lucky enough to pick up a norovirus.
