Definitely sounds like RSV. I'm just getting over it now, if it's a viral strain of RSV the only thing they'll do is subscribe you a cough suppressant which actually helps a bit if you're having a lot of muscle aches and your lungs hurt from coughing.

I really appreciate yours and the other comments. I had a phone appt w a Dr yesterday and was given an Rx for cough medicine w codeine, along with prednisone, since I’m asthmatic and am displaying bronchitis. He didn’t weigh in on it being RSV, but I’m pretty sure that’s what it is. Day 7 here, feeling a bit better…finally. I think I’m out of the dark.
