I am 20 weeks and have had a lingering chest infection (with low level temp) for 2-3 weeks. Finally gave in and took the amoxycillin given to me 4 days ago (I wasnt keen as don't like to take them anyway and then there is the issue re possible link with allergies in baby) .
Anyway the amoxycillin doesnt appear to be working (felt a bit better on days 2-3 but worse again this morning) and i am gutted as I assume it means it isnt working and i will have to take yet more of a different kind!
can't decide whether to go back to doctor (cant see the good one that i can have a sensible converstation with til monday so would have to be one of the others at the surgery) and accept whatever else they give me or try to see if this will shift on its own (problem is i am going away for long weekend next weekend and planes always make everything worse don't they).
Advice please - really cant believe i might have to take 2 courses of the stuff :-(
