Have had many symotoms for a while now and getting concerned. Symtoms include;

- Cough (for 6 weeks)
- Shortness of breath
- Occcasional tight chest
- wheezing
- some pain in upper back
- bloating

Seeing my doc tomorrow, hopefuly may just say i have a chest infection or something similar, but would like to be checked up fully.

I hope to hear from you b/c I'm exactly the same way. I would be interested in hearing what your Dr says!
