Possible bronchitis...?
I'm male/16. I've missed about 5 days of school already. I feel horrible & weak. The back of my head & neck are killing me. I can feel and hear mucus in my chest, but when I cough it just doesn't come up. The mucus in my nose comes out fine. When It feels like I can hack up a bit, its a tiny amount and bringing it up feels like I'm puking my throat out. I already threw up once. I went to the Doctor and he said its probably bronchitis. So I'm taking robutussin & some other pill and I haven't felt any progress.....

You may need an antibiotic. I suggest you call your doctor. If you are really feeling bad and need to see a doctor today; you should or could go to one of the 24 hour clinics in your area or a hospital emergency room. You do not what this turning into pneumonia.

I had bronchitis two years ago, it was terrible. You're definitely experiencing what I did, and my doctor gave me robutssin as well. The other pill is probably a nausea pill. It works pretty slow, but it does work. It took me about a week and a half of taking it to feel decent enough to actually get up and do things.
It sucks, but if you wait it out, you'll get better.
If two weeks pass without any progress, you should definitely go back to the doctor.
