I have the worst cold ever. I am coughing up things that looks like they came from smoker's lungs. My throat was sore for 3 days, now for 3 days I've been caughing up these awful balls of phlem. Aurg.
Just came in for some warm hugs. Physically, you don't want to get near me.
The kicker is I took a day off yday and came into work today at noon. I've got my meds all over my desk. Everything about me today sez: KEEP AWAY.
Pity me, plz.

It sounds bad. Bronchitis?

Aw, that sucks! My hubby is just getting over what sounds to be the same creeping crude! Not sure how I escaped it but I did! Have BF make you some soup and put on your favorite pj's and watch something trashy on the boob tube! Virtual hugs but please, no physical contact! 
P.S. As far as coughing crap up, try Mucinex! Works great!

Might well be. I have no voice, just cracks and squeeks.  Thank you for the well wishes.

I had that a month or two ago. It didn't want to go away. Aren't you on antibiotics still? Maybe it will help it go away?
Snuggle up for a day of rest though!

That stinks! Have you tried Mucinex? I really like it -- it's an expactorant, so it helps you keep getting that crap out of your lungs, but doesn't make me feel all loopy and cold-mediciney. Hot tea too! Feel better!

I was dozing in bed yday and remember watching a miriad of mucinex commercials!! It's like they were meant for meee!
I've never tried it, but having gone through a large bottle of Tylenol cold remedy in 2 days, I'll try anything new now. I bought some Robitussin CF at the gas station, and have taken a swig. Otherwise I'm on benedtryl, Comtrex cold and Sinus Nighttime, vics and codiene. 
Must... make it ... through... my day!

ZAP! Just sent you a bolt of energy to make it a while longer anyway!  I'm a big fan of NyQuil when I'm really sick, vile tasting stuff it is, it usually does the trick and helps me sleep! Mucinex is great to get the crude out and it won't make you tired so if you have to function, its a good choice!
