I have recently had bronchitis which was treated with antibiotics. Lungs cleared, but still wasn t feeling quite right. Doc said that I had a sinus issue and gave me a different antibiotc and prednasone. Sinuses seem better, but still things are not quite right. Have noticed some brown spots in saliva once in a while. Any ideas?
