Then this morning I woke up coughing, and coughed up green/yellow stuff again. UGH! I am still coughing and I am back to weezing again.
I guess I will go to see GP next week. I am due for a visit. LOL!
My knees and hips are aching again. My right thigh hurts when I cough. It bites!
No runny nose though! WOOHOO!!
Hubby gets off work early today... I might go get my blood work done.
Joonie, you need a break girl!!! Why, oh why does it always seem we get sick on Fridays? I hope you don't get worse this weekend. Time for the Neti Pot!
Thanks. Hubby came home and gave me some cough syrup and offered me his inhaler because I am weezing so bad. I declined the inhaler, but took the cough syrup.
Now... I am just trying to decide if I want to take my pain away or not, LOL! I have been trying to put off taking my pain meds as long as I can, but I need them. So... I am going to take them.
VITAMINE C......for you Joonie....Orange juice, orange eggs, orange toast, orange tea.....
Get well Joonie!
Tink
Oh I am sorry you are sick again or still... If you need the pain meds than I would take them. Hope you feel better.Well get some rest. Sounds like time to call the doctor. Hope you don't give it back to the kids. Joonie, take the inhaler, it won't hurt and it may mean the difference between staying home and hospital, sorry you are ill again, keep your chin up, pamper yourself woman! Hugs Janie.
I would call the doctor. Green or yellow discharge means infection! Please get on some antibiotics. Signed Dr. Wannabe LOL
Please feel better soon!
Joonie please get to the Dr. Don't be like me and hold out till it's almost to late. (nasty case of Bronchitis that almost landed me in hospital because I didn't go to Doc)
And yes, ditto on the vitamin c and plenty of it. Take care.
J, I hope you are feeling better by now. If not, get your booty to the dr, girl! Coughing up green spew is not good. Drinks lots of clear fluids and rest, rest, rest.
Let us know how you are.
My daughter is sounding like she is coming down with something and coughing all the time. She was up until 4am and I woke up and gave her nyquil. It knocked her out. She's 21 now but when she's sick she's like 5 years old again. I made her a smoothie with oj, strawberries, and banana. It made her stop coughing for awhile. I brought out the can of lysol and have sprayed everything down. I sure don't want it.
you take care, keep us posted
Joonie- where are you? Not hearing from you makes me think you are in bed ill! Please let us know how you are and get your butt to the doctor if you are not better yet!Did you get to the Dr? I sure hope so!Flu is going around down south...get well Joonie!!!Agree with everyone - yellow/green mucous is an indication of infection, and you will need antibiotics to hit it on the head, and don't wait too long, it can turn into something really nasty in a very short time.
However just thought I would share with you an old fashioned remedy to break up the mucous and help stop the coughing. An adult dose would be 1 teaspoon glycerine every couple of hours (if you overdose you will only get a bit of diahorria) - with my grandson (aged 3-1/2) I give him 1/2 teaspoon before bed and sit him up on pillows.
