I had Viral attack about 15 days back with
Dry Cough and Low grade Temp 99-99.5 C.
After a week of antibiotics and recovery,
I again felt sticking pains in limbs and
developed fever. I had to take antibiotics
again for a week. Dry Cough still
persisted. I felt so unusually weak,
muscle pain and little shortness of
breath. Doc diagnosed it as Allergic
Bronchitis and asked for tests viz. Chest
X ray, Blood test and Urine test. All the
test results are fine with no adverse
indications. Blood test showed tests
within acceptable range. Only ESR is
little high @ 18 instead of Normal range
of 0-15. He has prescribed Steaming,
Antibiotics and Cough syrup. There was
little wheezing in lungs.
Currently, after 5 days of taking
antibiotics, there is no wheezing, and he
has only advised Allegra tablets, Steaming
and Cough syrup. There are no other
symptoms eg skin, diahorrea, rash, lymph
nodes. Fever is also not there and Temp
fluctuates from 98.0-98.8 C. On my
insistence, Doc has now asked for Low
blood sugar and thyroid tests.
Dry cough continues but its not much, but
symptoms now include the following viz.
- Unusual weakness. Weakness & muscle
pain aggravates on switching the AC on.
- Muscle pain in limbs
- Little shortness of breath.
- Dry cough (On steaming it aggravates,
otherwise its not so much present). Cough
aggravates on switching the AC on. There
is no mucuous coming out.
- 2-3 kgs weight loss. I had my weight as
77 kgs. Now its 74 kgs. I am monitoring it
now.
Is the above a result of Post bronchitis
symptoms or otherwise. Pls help me. I am
feeling weakness and muscle in limbs and
don't know what to do. There is overall
weakness. I am taking vitamins as a cover
for weakness.

Might want to check with a neurologist to
be sure your symptoms aren't cuased by a
more serious infection...?

did you figure it out? Posted: 03-19-08 22:06pm
I just found your post via google. I just
went thru very similar symptons. Still
feel weak after 5 weeks. Not down and out
but very tired. Coughing produces a
little bit but not much.
