Hi. I ve had a dry cough and gurgling noises when I exhale since April. About a month ago I had a very noticeable reduction in my stamina, becoming short of breath just walking up a flight of stairs. Soon after I lost my stamina, I had pneumonia, which was treated with antibiotics. I ve been free of pneumonia for a couple of weeks, but my old symptoms still exist, and this past week I ve coughed up white foamy phlegm a couple of times, the first time my cough has been productive since symptoms began in April. My doctor doesn t really know what my problem is, and I hesitate to go to a specialist because my insurance won t cover it.
