I'm a very naughty girl, I won't go near any doctors unless it's absolutey necessary, so I don't have check-ups etc and probably walking a tightrope.
Still, so far so good.
Of course, if something became serious, I would have to go.
Fly, I think you're doing great so far. Hope I reach your good age and your good health x

Hi Alice,
All a matter of luck, I think.
And staying young at heart.

Well, the steam inhalations did the trick, the wheezing's gone.
We breathe again
The steam inhalations will have temporarily cleared the narrowed airways.... treating the symptom only but not the cause.

Re: Wheezing

If it has worked I would imagine you will know tomorrow and can then either see your own doctor or not depending on how you feel, I would be hesitant to accept diagnosis on a forum by anyone, even a nurse or doctor. I am surprised diagnosis is being offered

I don't see any condition having been diagnosed on this thread?

Re: Wheezing

Well, I feel a lot better, so I won't be visiting any doctor. I wonder what he/she'd say if I told them: "I've had a bad cold and I was wheezing, but it's stopped now and I feel fine." I think they'd ask me what I was doing there.

Yes I said it to reassure the poster not to panic yet, I wasn't saying it was a chest infection or it wasn't. NHS has limitations and the OP would have been laughed out the surgery if she had gone to a doctor before trying/waiting to see if it got worse.
