We had thought he was in the clear as I've been sick for over 5 weeks and he hadn't got sick yet...but now he has a high fever and feels icky. I feel bad. 
Think I gave my guy whooping cough.

So, knowing that you needed booster shots for an illness that spreads easily and is incredibly dangerous to very young babies who haven't yet been immunised, you 'forgot' or neglected to have them on time.... and then you got sick and proceeded to carry on your daily life?
Any one of the people you have come into contact with could have become ill or carried the virus to other people or babies.
Irresponsible much?

Actually, YES, if you have an incredibly contageous illness that could potentially kill a baby if you happen to cough your virulence all over the place, you fucking well SHOULD HAVE ISOLATED YOURSELF.
Irresponsible people like you are the reason babies still contract this entirely preventable illness

If I did that, I would get dropped both from therapy and my pain clinic.

Are you really that thick?
For whooping cough, like flu, you could wear a mask to your clinics - even my local clinic offers masks at the door for patients to wear so as to minimise the spread of communicable illness. The rest of the time, you isolate yourself until you are better.
Ffs, it's not that goddam hard!
Edit: it's at this point that you come back with a response like "I didn't know until the day before yesterday that I had whooping cough. The doctor told me it was just a cold. But when it lasted longer than a week and I started to make a deep 'whoop' when I coughed, they did some more tests. The tests took, like, nearly 4 weeks to come back."

I didn't even go to the doctor until after I was sick for 4 weeks...thought it was bronchitis.

Well, of course you didn't.
And not one of the many, many other doctors/medical personel you see said a damn thing about your cough.
Right?
