I am NEVER physically sick, last time I was sick 2000 it was for double pneumonia 2x in six months, hospitalized both times. I don't get colds or flus, I just am "me".

Well something knocked me out yesterday. That deep chesty cough (doesn't go away when I smoke Under the Umbrella) and that rasping and railing I can hear when I breathe.

I called my bestest friend to bring me something because I was coughing so hard all day my underwear and shorts were wet (eewwww) I don't go to the doctor (except PDoc) unless I'm knocking on deaths door.

Some kind thoughts would be appreciated.

If it doesn't clear up some today, I'd go to the doctor tomorrow so if it is going toward the pneu thing you can stop it before it gets to hospitalization? Unless you like hospitalization :-)

Sounds nasty - but if it doesn't clear up quickly, I'd definitely go to the doctors. Could be bronchitis, which can be really nasty if untreated.

You know, I think I wouldnt get sick all the time if i just had my tonsels out! 90% of the time I am sick with some sort of sore throat, and honestly i think i would do better without them things!

I'm starting to see a bit of sunshine...finally took a shower today after...oh, you really don't want to know how many days! Did DayQuil, NyQuil, Robitussion, Motrin, and Depends. The energy level isn't there, thats for sure. Off to the grocery store with the kids to come home with 30% food, 70% snacks

I've got the same thing right now...I hate it. Mucinex seems to help a lot.
