How long will it take for chest pain to go away after having bronchitis if you’re asthmatic?
February 15th, 2010 | by admin |Over a week ago I came down with bronchitis. Went to the doctor and got an antibiotic and cough medicine. Cough diminished 3 days ago and I rarely cough now, but I constantly have chest pain – feels like I’m carrying weights on my chest.
I’m also asthmatic and have been keeping up with my daily med’s (Advair, Singulair, Spiriva and Albuterol).
Went back to the doctor yesterday because I feel worse: aches, trouble breathing and massive chest pain. She said she still heard wheezing and she gave me Methylprednisolone.
Has anyone ever experienced this before with bronchitis? How long will it take until the chest pain goes away?
Have been there many times. I can take up to 8 weeks if the bronchitis was bad. Sounds like it is. Everyone is different. You are doing the right thing by keeping your doctor informed. Remember to drink plenty of water with the Methylprednisolone. 
Will help greatly. Good luck, hope you feel better soon. REST!!
