having tightness in chest with wheezing on inhaling also itchy lungs and throat help!
I went to er 5 days ago because of the fact I couldnt breath and was wheezing on inhalation (deep breaths only). I have this tight feeling in my chest and itchy in my lungs,throat and ear. Dr did xray and breathing test all looked good. Gave me antibiotics and cough syrup. He said its bronchitus. Well last night It happened again and its still going on this morning. I will be going back to dr today because its scaring me. Could this be allergic reaction to something whats with the inside itchness??? Any ideas whats wrong with me I am taking my last antibiotic today. Thanks

Well here I am one year later and I have the same thing today! Last year I ended up taking predisone and singulair. I have a script for singulair I think I will take it tonight. Still no clear answer on what this is.

My duaughter (16) has been having similar symptoms since January. She's had chronic urticaria (hives) for 7 years, and in January started getting a sensation of pressure in her chest, with occasional itching. She also is experiencing itching in her throat, but no swelling.

I am sorry you have all those allergies. But at least you know. I have been so sick since Christmas dealing with allergy symptoms, then bronchitis, now a sinus infection, 3 different antibiotics, and a cough that is killing me.
As soon as I am off the antibio I am going for allergy screening. No telling what I am allergic to but I don't care. i will do whatever it takes to stay well next year.
I line up my meds now, and 5 months ago I took nothing each morning. do the neti pot the first thing,
I take claritin, nasonex, antibiotic, probiotic, vitamin pill, apple cider vinegar in v8 juice. Ridiculous. Still not free of the cough, but boy do I feel better. It only took 4 months to get me well after the first dr visit!! And a cat scan to prove I had a sinus infect.
