Tightness In Chest, Cough, Cold, Wheezing. Should I Continue Medication?

been to seen doctor a week ago had tight chest and have had a cough/ cold for four weeks now. Doc said my chest wheezing and put me on antibiotics and steriods. My chest is still very tight and I'm now tasting copper every time i cough. I have not finished meds yet but thought i'd be feeling a bit better by now! should i just continue with meds or should I be going back to the doc and what should I request?
