peeps at work stand & stare when I start coughing, cos I sound like a 10 pack a day smoker. In fact writing that I realise how few people I hear coughing away like that these days from the ciggies.
I've never even had a single puff of a cigarette, for which my lungs must be exceedingly grateful.
Once I stop coughing, then I wheeze. Then for good measure I sneeze at high volume. Last night I had the wit to switch anti-histamines which made a big difference. However at the end of work today I had a glass of wine, which has brought the sneezling back into high scale production.
meh.
I'm thinking of trying some accupuncture, and lets face it - by now I'll try anything that works. Which my GP doctor completely agrees with. His take is so what if it's the placebo effect so long as you're better. (by which he means can measure an improvement with tests etc).
And I'm off my nose-bag as well so the concept of trying to force food into me isn't a concept I'm used to.
dodgy lungs
