Im a 17 year old female. i've had what i assume is just a bad cold for about 4-5 months it gets better then it gets worse i keep coughing up thick yellow phlem, my nose is always runny or blocked...or both at times and now my voice his gone. No fever tho. I dont eat particularly well, Im vegetarian which probably doesnt help, (this probably doesnt matter but i thought i should tell you just incase.) i do get depressed a lot, but after that i get really happy for a while. the cold started about 4-5 months ago and just doesnt seem to want to go away , cough syrup hasn't helped at all. i know its not allergies cause iv been to my GP and he said it was just a cold. Im really getting fed up of being ill all the time and so is my boss! Im always tired and i tend not to sleep to well. I've had regular headaches since i can remember, nothing too painfull though. So really i just want to know why iv had this cold so long, or if it could be anything else?
