I am wondering why I have another upper respiratory infection?  I was diagnosed with bronchitis this fall and it finally went away after 3 rounds of different antibiotics.  A chest xray was taken and they said it was fine.  Should I be concerned?  It took me almost 3 months to be completely recover from bronchitis.  I am coughing again (not a lot) and have green mucus.
