This is a question from participant Elaine.

After having severe H1N1 swine flu in 2009, followed by another chest infection within 10 days - my health and lifestyle changed. My main continuing issues are -

persistent throat clearing and occasional cough

SOB on exertion

constant extra tiredness

humidity is unbearable - mucus cough, feel like I can't breathe

cough around irritants - ie smoke

After years of treatment for asthma like symptoms [with no effect]and other conditions [with no effect], only through my persistence I have been diagnosed with Adult aquired tracheomalasia [mild]after bronchoscopy and NCF Bronchiectasis [mild] after scans.

My question is - Is there anyone in the world like me with ongoing symptoms post influenza?????

Thankyou

Elaine from Australia
