I have spent the last 2 weeks suffering...yes, suffering, from Bronchitis. This is an infection and inflammation of the upper respiratory tract.
I did not go to the doctor thinking I had the flu -- which it very well could have been. But the coughing, the on-again-off-again fever and muscle aches (yes, I have muscles) finally drove me to a doctor at a walk-in and sit for hours clinic. This doctor was elderly and I suspect could only hear his own breathing. He said my chest was clear.
Four days later I decided to visit another walk-in and sit for hours clinic. Finally, Dr. Azmi says, "You have brochitis." Gave me a prescription for Biaxin (5 day course) and sent me on my way.
Ahh, Biaxin...Not enough attention and accolades can be festooned on the subject of Biaxin. Biaxin, Biaxin, Biaxin...you are my friend, indeed! Biaxin has its own home page and medicinet has a good an article on the uses, side effects, etc., etc.
