Bronchitis: Bronchitis and asthmatic bronchitis usually presents with abnormal chest examination showing what is called rhonchi and wheezes. Occasionally steroids are prescribed for a persistent hacking cough with clear chest examination and this is considered an asthma equivalent. Your physician can answer your question best, however.

The 7 "Fs": of gallbladder disease: fair, fat, female, forty, fertile, flabby and flatulent. You almost fit that surgical portrait. I am concerned with your abdominal bloating and suggest an abdominal ultrasound with blood testing of liver and pancreatic function. You do not have to meet all criteria, however, I am not sure why you are on antibiotics?
