Tissue? I Hardly Know You!
October 28, 2008
Joe and I are still hacking and sniffling.
Joe was coughing so badly he was losing his breath, then he'd manage to get rid of a big gob, then he'd be a little better, then he'd start the cycle all over again.
He finally went to the ER this afternoon, because our regular doctor couldn't see him until Thursday at noon. Thanks, Doc! The ER doc did a chest x-ray and bloodwork, and sent Joe home with a nice prescription of Zithromax and instructions to see our regular doctor. Good thing we have that appointment.
I, on the other hand, am simply full of goo, so I am taking Mucinex to try to get rid of it. I don't feel all that bad, but I sound like a consumptive.
We have also discovered the brand of tissue that are redolent of Vicks Vap-O-Rub. These are wonderful things, these tissues. They are probably no more effective than regular tissues, but boy do they smell great.
Gotta love that placebo effect!
