[QUOTE="DDD, post: 268340, member: 35"] It seems like a year......:sick:.......but I have been sick for exactly one week. Yesterday morning I got to see the Dr. (that was a wonderful shock) and started the medications yesterday afternoon. He gave a shot to jump start the treatment. I do feel better already but it is this blankin' cough that prevents sustained sleep that is driving me nuts. I'm floating from water and hot tea (but not thyme/honey..so I'll try it). Your answers parrot my thoughts. It's like the chicken and the egg! I'm assuming the antibiotics are suppose to crush the infection which is causing the congestion which is triggering the cough. on the other hand, there used to be something comforting about taking a slug or two of cough syrup! Maybe I do need to send husband out for a bottle of cheap brandy like Suz recommended. It's been at least ten years since I have had an Rx like this so I'm afraid to add any booze to the mix. Thanks for caring. I feel old and whiney and nervous and and and. It helps to hear from you guys. DDD [/QUOTE]
