Have a look at microplasmic pneumonia. My eldest had this for months without realising what it was, he had been treated by his GP for a recurring chest infection combined with a flare up of his quite severe asthma.
It only came to light when he rocked up at A&E with a completely unrelated problem and they did a chest X-ray.
Sometimes called walking pneumonia or community acquired pneumonia. It may not be that Eccles but might be worth a look.
