I basically have had a cough for about a week now. Last night it got so bad I threw up a few times as I was coughing so hard. Now I've also woken up with a really painful right ear. Worst part about it, is its my bfs birthday today and I'm ill again! Lol. Shall I go doctors or is there not much they can do? Thank you
 
Sure, no harm in going to the doc. Grab some cough medicine too

I just don't want to annoy the doctors with something so minor! But then again being sick can't be good.
I shall, thank you.
P.s, I just saw your post about the needle in your butt... Everything ok down there?

It sounds like it might be a cold. I've coughed so much I've been sick before. I had a dry cough at night and just couldn't stop coughing.

You could speak to a pharmacist and see what they recommend.

How are you recovering from your UTI now? I find if you get one illness, it can knock down your body's defences a bit, especially if you have high sugars, and then it takes a while to get back to normal.
