Smoker?: You may be having a lung infection. If you had bronchitis this may be more of the same. It will take every bit of two weeks to resolve including the fatigue and cough. NOte if you are a smoker or around smoke this can make it last longer. The azithromycin is for a bacterial infection and most bronchitis is viral. Have you been to the doctor office? If so you may need to go again. Best wishes
