Not sure: Without an exam of you, it is tough to say if your bronchitis came back again. Factors such as underlying diseases, exposure to allergens, exposure to other sick people (who may not be getting treated), Smoking (which I see you do not do-GOOD for you) can all play a role in your ability to heal and get better. See the doc if you think you are sick again. Good luck.

Need an exam: Three episodes that you describe suggests an underlying problem. Whether that might be allergies, asthma, or other problems needs to be determined on properly treated. You need to see your physician to facilitate this.
