being sick sucks. really sucks.
Sep. 14th, 2005 04:49 pmAfter nearly two full weeks later, I'm still hacking & coughing and generally not feeling much better. I feel better than I did 5 days ago (on Friday, things were bad enough I couldn't even get enough lung power to cough).
But I'm still coughing a ton! It's giving my abdominal muscles a fairly good workout though. ;)
Back in to the Dr I went this morning. She said that with my asthma the chest cold that turned into bronchitis really inflamed everything a whole bunch.
So, I'm back on my old friend Prednisone for 6 days. Yuck! :( But it does work. And it'll be nice to start feeling better.
I also got good codine cough medicine. It's the kind that makes you sleepy, so I can't take it at work (which is not fun), but it will (hopefully) mean that I'll be able to get a decent night's sleep tonight.
And now a wonderful story about ( the fungus that tried to eat my bathroom )
