Will be honest not sure if I had it but my temp has gone, but what ever I had it has knackered my breathing up. I've not been diagnosed with asthma but because my misses has load of inhalers I just used hers (bit naughty). Going to ring doctors up tomorrow and see what they suggest.
AND! .....YOUR GOING BACK TO WORK TOMORROW!!!!!! REALLY? please don't.
NHS and .gov say if your temperature has gone after 7 days you're fine to go out off isolation. Tried finding info on it but can't find any.

It just feels like theres something sat on my chest and can't get a full breath. My misses inhaler relieves it a bit for about 30 mins too a hour. Will ring doctors at 8 tomorrow. Don't start till 8.15 so will see what they say.
Jesys mate. Once it's on your lungs this thing can rapidly progress to failure of your breathing.

Please, please ring the NHS, ASAP.

And DO NOT GO TO WORK.

Good luck.
Update time.

I did go too work but I rang my manager to meet me outside and explain to them the situation, too their credit they was can't believe I'm going too say this Brilliant :Sick. Told them I'm just waiting too get through too the doctors and if they give me the all clear I will come in.

Anyway they said because I'm still not well too go back home and manger just said that's fine and too look after myself. Now I'm on the phone too 111 to get medication to help with my breathing.
