my mum

I'm kinda worried about my mum because she keeps coughing really badly and it's like, gagging after she coughs which makes me feel sick. Does anyone know what could be wrong? She went to see a doctor and he gave her medicine, but she's not really getting any better. It happens very often, at least every hour and she said that she was dying, though that's probably an exaggeration. It does sound bad though:frown: Do any medics know what she can do and what might have caused this to happen?

THanks

Is she a smoker? or asthmatic?

I'm not medic but maybe it is a chest infection? If this continues, i reckon she should go to the doctors again

She's not a smoker, she's only mildly asthmatic. Could be a chest infection, thanks, I'll force her to see the doctors again I guess ¬_¬
