Re-evaluation: kindly revisit your doctor for re-evaluation or seek a second opinion, no offense, you may need dosage adjustment of medicines taken or may need other medicines added as antibiotics if you have upper/lower respiratory bacterial infections that would perpetuate your symptoms, good luck
