So I have bronchitis and am now on Benzonatate. One dose and it is already working! It can be taken as needed.

Do not have pneumonia which is a relief. Do not need antibiotics.

My blood pressure at the urgent care was 91/61 and my head was spinning. The urgent care doctor was nonchalant about it – he told me this BP is technically still normal and is way better than having 190/60. I wholeheartedly agreed that it is better, but, curiously enough, last time I was at my internist's office with 90/60, she was worried and made me stay in the office until they measured the BP again and the systolic climbed to over 100. So I guess different drs have different attitudes.

I was told to expect cough to last 4 more weeks, but it is nothing serious.

I am going to take another Benzonatate now and hope to be able to breathe during the night.
