I just hate it! I hate it and I hate it! God knows how I love singing. I always used to sing whenever or wherever I go. It`s one of the best gift that God have given me... It`s one of my passion. Life would be as dull as it could be if I won`t be able to sing in a day. And come this Acute Bronchitis. It just stopped me from singing for more than a month now. My doctor told me not to sing not until she told me. Tooooo bad for me! Too bad for someone like me who`s been singing for almost all the time of my life. But still I`m hoping that I`d be able to sing again sooon, perhaps tomorrow or maybe the next day. Also my doctor told me that it would just be temporary. She even added that if I really do wanna sing again, I have to take her advice. I really don`t understand how it works but according to her, singing would surely open the passage of air to my throat to my lungs, that would surely ruin more my situation. I`m just crossing my fingers and hoping that I`d be back to normal soon. So I could sing again like a bird. Haha.

Uhm.. You're lucky in a sense that it's "acute" and not "chronic". Just take her advice to avoid complications and all. Take care of yourself, rest. That's all really. Acute diseases are easier to treat than chronic diseases. So there.

Very true... Actually I really thought it was something that is not really good since it`s more than a month now, so I just then decided to see my doctor. It`s much relief when the result showed that it`s just really acute bronchitis. *Thank God. Now, I am doing what my doctor told me... and I can feel much improvement. Who knows I can sing again tomorrow or maybe the next day. But I have to see my doctor again before I do that. Hehe. And yes, rest really helps. I actually filed a leave after my doctor advices me to do so.

i never this kind of thing before, that singing can actually make your bronchitis worst. But at any rate, since you trust your doctor that much (the way I figure it out though), you must do what she says. Since it is only temporary then you have to be patient a little bit.Anyway your voice is still there so there is no way you cannot sing in the near future.

Thanks for the response. Well my doctor actually told me not to sing not until I am okay for my immediate recovery. And I guess she`s right because I am feeling better now and that maybe tomorrow or the next day I could go back to sing again. By the way, my acute bronchitis is more than a month now...
