Thanks for your question on HCM. I can understand your situation and problem. In my opinion you should first consult pulmonologist and get done 1. Chest x ray 2. PFT (pulmonary function test). Chest x ray is needed to rule out chronic infection as cause. PFT is needed to rule out bronchitis as cause. No point in taking different antibiotics. Haphazard use of antibiotics will harm you more. It will delay the recovery and increase chances of drug resistance. So better not to take further antibiotics. Consult pulmonologist and first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. You may need inhaled bronchodilators.
