I THINK I feel better
Posted By Kathleen David on April 5, 2007
At least my head feels better but the cough is a killer. I am trying every trick I can think of to slow it down/stop it because at this point it hurts to breath much less cough. I am hoping that this is the back end of the whole thing. I also have lost my taste for cough drops or rather standard cough drops with menthol seems to make my stomach very upset so I am down to hard candies to suck on for cough relief. *Sigh*
Peter has offered to take Caroline to an indoor playground that she loves for a couple of hours to give me some more time to rest up but I think he really needs the time for work so I am going to try to make it through the day. *cough cough cough*
I have a bowling lesson with a coach but I have to see if I am up for it. I think not much is getting done today other than trying not to cough.
I am grateful that I am feeling better.
Hang in there. I’m going through the same thing with the cough, fighting it with Robitussin/DayQuil/NightQuil. I’m better than yesterday, which was better than the day before, and hopefully you’re the same, and it’ll go away soon.
Tell the Dr. you want an Advair Inhaler – it’s most often used for asthma, but boy, does it stop a bad cough in its tracks. Dries up all the fluid in seconds, and lasts for 8-12 hours. So far so good this year.
Try Ricola’s Honey-Echinachea Cough Drops – very soothing on the throat and helps a lot with coughing… Feel better!
