For a bit I was thinking "is this chest pain or nausea or both" scared myself....its calming down a bit now...blech.

Am putting a call into the dr. in the a.m. for Zpack...I think your right...this other stuff is just making me feel worse...its been going on for over a week...many people in my building have it...just awful, I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

Thanks for the kind words...it does help!

p.s. definitely praying...always do! Will say one for you too!

I was last really sick like that in 2004 or 2005 and every single time I would cough so violently, I almost - or actually did "have a problem", if you get my drift. I thought I was becoming totally incontinent but apparently it is the combination of taking medicine and violent coughing that does it. Once I was over that flu and off the medication and a month of coughing was over, I was back to normal again! I almost couldn't breathe my chest was so congested. Had to sit up in bed and fight for air. Felt like I had a brick on my chest. I finally realized I needed a burst of adrenaline to help my breathing so I got online on Ebay and started bidding for auctions about to end. Got so excited over a Patti Playpal I was bidding for and won, I totally got past the breathing difficulty with all of that natural adrenaline coursing through me, which really opened my congested tubes up I guess, and 10 days later, this beautiful doll showed up via UPS! I felt totally justified in spending all that money as it kept me out of the E.R. probably and was much more pleasant way to spend an hour.

Sure hope you start to feel better. Be careful taking alcoholic drinks with certain medicines so check with the pharmacist to be sure nothing you are taking will be dangerous to you with the hot toddy and if, not, drink up! Gotta take care of Lynzy!!!

Its made, with Black Velvet just as the recipe says. Surprisingly it goes down quite easy!!!

lynzy420 · 12-24-2012, 10:16 PM

however, I think I would prefer the Brandy! But honestly this is not a bad drink at all.

lynzy420 · 12-24-2012, 10:45 PM

Sounds like old todd' has done his work and you are ready to tuck yourself in and hopefully get some meaningful sleep. Stay warm, hope you wake up feeling better and a little hungry.

chachi · 12-25-2012, 02:53 AM

Ive had the same thing for 2 weeks and Im so glad it seems mine is finAlly going Away I hope your better soon

jadabug · 12-25-2012, 04:25 AM

Just now seeing that you are sick Lynzy!! I hope the hot toddy worked and you got a good nights sleep. Here is another trick that is supposed to help with coughing. My mom swears by it......put Vick's Menthol rub on the bottom of your feet and then put socks on. IDK how but she says it works for the coughing.

Verbena · 12-25-2012, 05:00 AM

I am just finding out your sick. Glad you mad the hot toddy. I hope you are feeling better today. Stay warm. Chicken soup and tea with honey

BabyGirl Rosie · 12-25-2012, 06:39 AM

Ok, see you made the hot toddy. How did you sleep?

I just had to check in and see how the toddy went and read each post as you posted them and got to this one. LOL! Hope it helped you sleep. Merry Christmas!!

yorkietalkjilly · 12-25-2012, 10:46 AM

Ok, Lynzy, been waiting to hear how you are! That "ceeing double" worried me. Please please be better! If you are reading this, please update & put our minds at ease as you are alone and ill. Am praying your chest didn't get bad bad overnite and send you into the E.R. or something. I don't even know how to check on you. Praying this finds you feeling better.

lynzy420 · 12-25-2012, 01:43 PM

The Toddy is good stuff! I fell asleep uninterrupted and slept in, got up for a little while took some meds and went back to bed...I really needed the sleep, I've had one endless night for over a week.

I am having another tonight. Sadly I don't feel 100% and probably will go back to Dr. tomorrow. Unless its just breaking up....I don't know.

My Mom lives down the street and wanted me to comeover but she has Pulmonary Fibrosis so I won't even think of it...my brother is going to drop off a plate and some cookies...I'm not sad...just want to get better.

Sorry you worried Jeannie...I really thought I updated

but yes I honestly recommend the Toddy for anyone who is real sick...It really helps with sleep and I don't recall coughing all night...
