Sick for 12 days help?

Hi Stephen here I have been sick for over 12 days my doctor just keeps on telling me all I have is bronchitics and a touch of the flu. My sysptomns are chills body aches and weight loss and no Appetite and some cough but none thing is brought up. Also I still can not go to work because I have no energy and am weak as heck. I was on antibiotics 2 different kinds and now they both are finished. I am just wondering could I have Mersa Infection or am I just getting to hyper. Because I have no sores or open cuts or pimples at all on my entire body . But I still fell the worst ever. What could be wrong or do I just need more time to get well. I can not eat and have no energy and am loosing weight still and still have a bad cough. Respond thanks

    You, my friend, have a full blown case of the flu. It can take over two weeks to clear and since it's not a bacterial infection (based on your description) you're in for the long run.

    It was predicted that this would be a very bad year for the flu, and you caught it. IDK if you got your shot or not, but if you did, it was too late.

    So, you need someone to make you a good chicken soup (I know it sounds corny, but it really does help) Then you need to take Theraful, they make day and night versions, or at least something to dull what you're going through.

    Source(s): Let's just say that I know many dr's.

    it sounds like a chest infection. Getting more antibiotics will hopefully clear it up.
