Are testing for valley fever as I am a native to Arizona.
[|AI|]  Hello dear, thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. In my opinion you should consult pulmonologist first and get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system 2. PUT (Pulmonary Function Test). Possibility of bronchitis is more in your case because of recurrent cough, fever and not improving with routine antibiotics. So we need to rule out bronchitis first. PFT will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. So get done PFT. You may need inhaled bronchodilators and antihistamines. So consult pulmonologist and first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment.
