Thanks, blue. Yeah, I don't really know what to do or anything. I am afraid if I show up in a clinic that everyone will freak, because it is quite obvious I have a respiratory thing going on. No hiding it. I guess maybe I should call and ask them what they thing I ought to do.
It is just a really weird one this time. I have never =, ever had so much constant, continuous airway irritation--tons of it. Bizarre.
Thanks for the encouragement. I am a terrible patient, like all nusrses and doctors. I blow everything off. Will try not to do that this time.
