Massive rise in London UK right now. I have also got it now its terrible cannot sleep

Thanks for this video. My children are in the 9th week. It's horror. No sleep for our children and for us. Constant fear of not being able to breathe. Now I'm in the 5th week too. At first I had cramps in my stomach area due to the strong cough. I ended up injuring a bone due to my cough and also had unbelievably bad pain with every little cough. With my children it is less now, but it is still there. Vaccinate yourself and your children against it if you haven't had it. It's a really bad disease and no doctor has diagnosed it in us. We figured it out ourselves after seeing the symptoms on KZfaq. Unfortunately too late.

I’m on week 9. I’ve stopped being sick everytime i cough and I’m coughing a lot less but i’m now struggling to breathe and i’m now breathing with what sounds like popping candy on my chest. It’s literally never ending!! I’m so sick of this illness!! 🤧 doctors asked if anyone in my household have caught it.. i said i’m the only one that has so he said it’s definitely not whooping cough then.. BUT I HAVE ALL THE SYMPTOMS!!! I was never vaccinated as a baby but my daughter and partner were.

Great video just had it at the same time as my son was absolutely horrific still recovering months later.

Yes, same in New Zealand. I am suffering in 3 months coughing. just been to my GP today.

I found this helpful as it provides the basic knowledge require

I’m 46 and was never vaccinated. Got it from my 10 yr old after we went to the England Brazil game at Wembley where I think he got it. My son was vaccinated as a baby. My doctor referred my details to UKHSA who never called as had been led to believe they would. Guess there’s too much of it around for them to trace. The difficulty breathing is the scariest part. After 6 weeks I’m still producing the thick mucus that makes it difficult to breathe although coughing bouts have reduced. Had Amoxicillin after 1 week (no affect) then had clarithromycin after 3 weeks, which did help to calm the bouts a little. It’s weird how the nose suddenly produces mucus during a coughing bout and eyes suddenly go bloodshot but the crackles on the chest subside with good rest, lots of water and deep breathing. Box breathing is helping me get rest and mini naps during the day, however can’t sleep on my side due to painful ribs/diaphragm.

I believe I gave this I have been sick for almost two months with this cough and went 5 times to doctors but no one listens to me that this it’s not normal for my body so they didn’t help and they didn’t diagnose it

Bro my muscles in the chest hurts so bad like when I cough it fucking hurts bro

Wow.. good work

Outbreak in the Uk june 2024 too.

Great video as always, thank you so much for you excellent work!

This virus saw me and said, "you got a right Pertussis mouth."

This is a terrible illness. There is no adequate testing. There is no adequate vaccine for adults. I've had covid 19 during the pandemic, that was like an itch compared to Pertussis. In the middle of Paroxysmal stage, violent cough, blackouts, stomach muscles pulled to pieces, no sleep. I'm 57 and lived in the UK all my life. Never had whooping cough, and have never known anyone have it until now. This is a definite pandemic and needs to be addressed. Eight babies lives lost so far this year to whooping cough, how many through covid19 ?

So helpful. THANK YOU!

Cornwall, England. Age 54 I’m on week 3 and my lethargy has stopped me working and still get coughing burst that make me vomit. Up tonight because I’m wheezing and rattling but can’t clear anything. Required antibiotics clarithromycin for longer than expected. So tired.

i think my 2yo has it. He was like normal sick for 2 days then he started with that awful cough. yesterday was last fever day. today last night was a horror sleeping. he was up like 3/4 times coughing and had that wheezing sound in between bits. i was crying this morning because the poor angel doesnt even know whats happening and it scared me. He has no fever at all now and the coughing is nowhere near as bad during the day as at night which i heard on another video is quite normal... idk whether to take him to dr or not. i dont trust them tbh. and if antibiotics wont help him i dont see much sense in it

I have been sick for over 2 months , extreme pain from my back upper left side on my back when I cough feels like I broke a rib .. it’s awful truly awful infection

waiting for test results, had pertussus twice so far, once as a kid, again with 3 kids, two who also got sick, including a two month old baby

Actually Philippines we have a outbreak 😢

14wks and i still have it. I just had the cough which was only every now and then but now iv picked up a cold from somewhere and im coughing like crazy and struggling to breathe again. Doctors say there is nothing they can do. I dont get why i got it though as i had my whooping cough vaccination 8 years ago 😷

I got six pack abs of this

I have whooping cough I’m on week 5 I still get episodes of coughing fits and extreme tiredness.. I had complete closure of my throat couldn’t breathe in at all for a min at a time was frightening.. wish I’d wud do one it’s awful took me 4 doc trip and one hospital they didn’t seem to care now I got anxiety from the periods of not being able to breathe 😮

Week 4 , has anyone fainted ? I woke up down the side of the toilet 😮

I’m unsure what’s wrong with me but I’ve had a cough for +12 months. I’ve had chest xray and multiple antibiotics. Doctors keep telling me my lungs are fine airway is clear

I've had these symptoms for over a month now, im fainting snd vomiting from coughing all night, my ribs are killing me and have taken time off work. My doctor absolutely refuses to prescribe antibiotics for it saying its "just a cold"..

Got adult whopping cough. Took antibiotics. No longer whooping as much but still coughing my head off, going on 4 + weeks now. Question… should I get a vaccine booster? Is that a good idea? and if so how long do I have to wait to get one?

Why is either the channel.owner or youtube deleting comments thst sre to help people through this...highly unethical

Hi sir please answer high risk exposure hiv my test 3 month 6 month 9 month nagetiv me 100 person save yes no please answer

Hello doctor,,, My names is mohamed ragab ammar, i am a medical student in the second year i have a question,,,, if i have a patient with the whooping cough sound, he already pass the first catarrhal stage should i give him Erythromycin or i have to wait for the recovery and if the cough isn't tolerated at night can i give him antitussive " he has no phlegm" thank you.
