Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Could Be The Dry Cough With Difficulty In Breathing And Cold With Signs Of Heart Block?
2 weeks ago I started with a dry cough. Within two days I was coughing hard and very frequently with difficulty breathing. The breathing got better but not cough. On the seventh day within minutes I became stuffed up and my cough had become very productive. I have become very fatigued and weak like. Appetite has decreased also. The symptoms continued for 4 days so went to Dr and he said just wait it out for 4 or 5 days and see what happens. He could not hear anything in lungs, but I had had a coughing spell just before which seems to stop the rattling in my lungs for a while. Cold is getting better but cough is like a barking cough deep in my chest. A lot of times I am choking because I cough so hard. I am not sure what to do know. I feel so fatigued doing the least thing. I also have heart faiiure and complete heart block. So should I go see a cardiologist or family Dr again?
