Yes: Anyone, but particularly someone with an underlying illness, who has compromised respirations should be seen by a doctor asap. Go now. If you cannot see your pcp right away, try an er or urgent care facility. Good luck and hope you are better soon.

Yes: Take no chances. It is better to be checked not to end up sitting home too long with a serious infection.
