I have been coughing for 1 month, I took mucinex dm and cipro last week.Its only a cough, no chest congestion or fevers.Twice when I coughed a lot I vomitted or leak a little urine/discharge.Last night I developed runny nose and sneezing.Went to my internist today and he said I have sinus infection and allergies. He prescribed flonase, loratadine and steroids.I had my breast aug scheduled for tomorrow but decided to postpone it.If I take the steroids for 5 days can I have boob job the day after?
