Yikes! Bronchitis and sinus infection. |
|
I guess I'm pretty lucky as I only get sick about once a year, but when I do it's a ass kicker.
So how's your day going?

1. Productive cough, violent sneezing, body aches, headache. |
|
Since we are both at our best, what say you and me go sit at a bar with a box of tissues?
My doctor told me that antibiotics don't work unless you drink plenty of alcohol with them.
Hope you feel better soon.

2. Productive cough. LOL. |
|
The only thing this cough is producing is a splitting headache, sore ribs and pissing me off. Sheesh. x(
I remember about your thread the other day concerning cracking a rib when sneezing. I think I'm almost there.
A bar visit sounds good, I believe the correct dosage is 1 shot of Wild Turkey 101 + 1 shot of Peppermint Schnapps for ever 1 mg of antibiotic. :)
Hope you feel better too. :pals:

4. I USED to get bronchitis every year. |
|
It was typically the worst week of the year and I dreaded when I'd get that first tickle in my throat. That was until my doctor told me about Cannabis™. Since then, I spark up a little bowl every time I feel that tickle in the back of my throat. A few minutes later, I cough up the phlegm that had built up in my throat and I don't need to worry about bronchitis any more. Haven't had to endure it a single time since I started toking.

5. Cool. Yet another use for the mighty herb! |
|
I think I'd need to find some of that Mexican Brown hack we used to get back in the day to get this stuff cleared out of my chest. :rofl:

6. I've found that really even ditch weed does the trick. |
|
Ideally it would be the best you can find because the less you need to smoke the better. But I've found that so long as you smoke it straight, without any tobacco, it will clear it out right away. THC is a damn good bronchodilator, so a few minutes after a toke you should have no problem clearing out your chest.

7. I think the pneumonia is gone, after a Z-pack (zithromax). |
|
But it all started with what you've got. Don't underestimate it like I did.

9. Doc put me on Biaxin, hope that'll do it. |
|
Trust me, I've had walking pneumonia a couple of times in the past so I never underestimate bronchitis anymore.
Glad you're getting better!

...and I have a lot of "connecting the dots" to do, too. Can't concentrate for shit, but I've got to.
In about 20 seconds the timer is going to go off and my cup of hot Earl Grey tea will be ready, so that will help.
Hope you feel better.

11. Mine started as a head cold too. Damn freaky Bay Area weather! |
|
Hot one day, freezing ass cold the next. x(
Don't push yourself too hard. Get some rest and watch out if it moves to your chest.
Hope you feel better soon too. :hi:
