"Recent chest infection"

About: Wonersh Surgery

since November had an orating cough that I was living with , annoying but managing to control until middle of February when my coughs would would become very long periods and very painful right across chest ,leaving me reaching and being sick several times a day.

Booked my 1st appointment and wS given a weeks supply of antibiotics which I took three times a day unfortunately it got worse I couldn’t lay down so no sleep and all of my chest went into spasm.

After finishing the antibiotics I made a 2nd appointment this time getting a different dose of antibiotics and a 4 day course of steroids.

Also made appointment for chest x ray at royal Surrey next day.

Wow what a difference after 2 days I was beginning to feel better and after 4 other than a slight cough I was a different person feeling so much more like myself.

My chest X-rays came back saying no further action required and I’d like to say thanks to everyone at hospital and doctor Bodgener at Wonersh surgery for all the help they’ve given me

Thank you
