How would you know if you have laryngitis?
Wouldn't that be something the doctor would have to tell you that you have?


My friend told me he got laryngitis while I was talking to him. He sound pretty bad...he could barley talk higher than a whisper.

And I haven't met too many guys with laryngitis!

My father had emphysema and COPD for the last 30 years of his life, and no he didn't smoke. He had in the past but had since quit. I took my turn taking care of him and watched him get worse and worse until the day he took his last breath. Now, a year later, I keep getting bronchitis and need inhalers. I cough and wheeze and sound just like my father did. The cough sounds identical and I have every symptom he did. I even get shaky and winded after a long coughing fit. It often scares me when I realize how farmiliar this all is. And here's the real kicker...I am only 24 and I have never smoked a day in my life! When I was a kid I was often hospitalized for severe asthma attacks and pnemonia, but I was told I grew out of the asthma and am fine now. Could I be developing emphysema even though I have never smoked before and I am only 24?

It's not asthma, but you just feel that it's so hard to breathe and you need to gasp for air at times.
Like a huge stone stucking in between your body, the heavy burden, not literally.
Is it some kind of illness or puberty stress or it's the haze that causes such?

HELP PLEASE!

SHE ASKED ME TO LEAVE BECAUSE I UPSET HER STAFF WHEN I HAD BRONCHITIS AND I NEEDED A CERTAIN ANTIBIOTIC. THE STAFF DIDN'T GIVE THE DOCTOR THE MESSAGE FOR DAYS. SO MY BRONCHITIS TURNED INTO PNEMONIA. THEY WERE MAD, BECAUSE I CALLED SEVEREL TIMES A DAY TOO GET THE RIGHT PRESPIRTION, THAT NEED A PRIOR AUTHORITION FROM INSURANCE COMPANY. SO WHAT ENDED UP HAPPENING IS THEY WOULD ONLY GIVE ME THE ANTIBIOTIC I WAS ON BEFORE I WAS SICK. I SAID "NO" WHY WOULD I THAT THE SAME DRUG THAT I WAS ON WHEN I GOT SICK. I HAD WENT TO THE E.R.. AND THE DOCTOR THERE SAID IF THEY DIDN'T FILL THE PRESPRITION TO COME BACK AND THE HOSPITAL WOULD. SO I DID. SO NOW MY DOCTOR DOESN'T WANT TO SEE ME. AND ANYONE NEW DOCTOR I TRY TO SEE, TURNS ME DOWN. WHAT SHOULD I DO?
