Answer 1

From the sounds of it, it's just the flu, last may I was put in hospital for a chest infection because I have a previous condition - my symptoms were headaches, extreme shortness of breath, blue finger tips. If your chest starts to feel worse just go to the emergency room straight away to get it checked out - even if you don't feel worse overall. It's better to get checked out and make sure theres nothing wrong than to leave it and get worse. If you do end up having a chest infection they will more than likely put you on a course of steroids or antibiotics until the infection is cleared up.
