Tell us: do you suffer from whooping cough?

Cases of whooping cough have risen across England, Wales and Scotland. We are curious about people who have recently been affected.

What were your (or your child’s) symptoms? How did your doctor’s surgery handle this and how are you feeling now? Had you had it before? Are you aware of any other cases in your community?
