Post Reply New Topic

So, last night, I had some Chinese take-out. Yummy, right? The pork spare ribs kept getting in my teefs and apparently I missed some brushing because my gums started to become very sensitive almost to the point of hurting so I did something I don't ever do - flossed. I got out a few good chunks of pork out from between my teeth and out from my gums. I took an Aleve and a few hours later, I felt better...

except

Every spring, I get this sensitivity in my chest and a hard, hacking cough. It's chronic bronchitis. I tried some of those Fisherman's Friend lozenges. Whoa! Are those things potent or what? It seemed to help for a little while but it came back. I remembered that I still have some of my inhaler that I had from last season and I took a big ol' snort off of that and belt the tightness go away a little while later. Tonight I can feel the phlegm breaking loose. I hope it goes away soon but I do feel better.

i wish you luck.

not bronchitis I think. I have a miserable cold. I had that malaise yesterday that I couldn't quite put my finger on. Just achy and weird feeling.

When I went to bed, I couldn't stop coughing so I had a couple tablespoons of honey and took a hit off my inhaler. After that, I slept pretty well.

was it local honey? I hope you feel better. colds are no fun in the springtime when the air is nice and breezy. of course when are colds ever that fun anyways? FEEEEEELLLL BETTTTTTERERRR...


I think i have something called spring fever.

yeah, spring fever is running at pandemic levels 'round these parts.

I don't know if it's local honey. I love honey, though. Pretty soothing for a bad cough.

be careful - dental floss can contain PTFE or something similarly toxic.

oh well. my mouth feels a lot better.
