sooooo... I almost died in the dr's office. D:

By which I mean he told me to 'breathe deep' as he checked my lungs and I started coughing... coughing so bad I couldn't breathe, tears rolling down my face. I couldn't do anything. D: Every time I tried to say a word I would just start coughing again. There's a reason I've been avoiding 'Deep Breaths' for a couple month. *sigh*

He was trying his best to be patient and continue on with the appointment but I couldn't say a word. Finally he took pity on me and handed me some prescriptions and left me with my water bottle and kleenex until I could calm down again.

As I left the waiting room full of people were all like: OMG ARE YOU OKAY???

D:

/mortified.

ANYWAY. Not pneumonia (yet). It's bronchitis? I guess. Hard to tell what he said while I was gasping for air. So I now have antibiotics and an inhaler. Pharmacist warned me that the inhaler might make me hyper. GUESS WHAT IT DOES!!! HI!!!! WHAT IS THIS ENERGY I AM FEELING????

Hate to say this but you NEED to take the deep breaths or you will wind up with pneumonia. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!! The inhaler should help a lot, it sounds like your lungs are very irritable right now. You are lucky the inhaler makes you hyper, it makes me weak and trembly as hell.

Take care of yourself, ok? *hugs*

Ack. Okay. I am now able to take some deep breaths after using the inhale. Will make sure to keep trying.

When my dad had to do the deep breathing trements, they made him blow up a balloon. Since you know how you have to breath deep to get alot of air in there.

Also, the inhaler should help a TON, that's what fixed me when I had bronchitis!

Actually it might be an infected windpipe?? I had something very similar a month back. I wasn't able to take deep breaths AT ALL, especially in the evenings. I had a nasty cough and when it was at its worst, whenever I coughed I wouldn't be able to get any air in and it felt pretty scary! I was on a train from Paris to Brussels and people were looking at me like they thought I was dying :p
The doctor listened to my lungs and... nothing, so no pneumonia. Finally he prescribed cough syrup (not just any cough syrup, I can look up which one if you like) and the doctor told me it would probably last at least another week but I wasn't going to die ;) He said antibiotics or an inhaler wouldn't help me... Hopefully they help you though... Hope you get well soon!!!
EDIT: also, the cough, if it is an infected windpipe, is non-functional meaning you can't really 'cough it out' (hence the need for something calming the cough)

Good grief. That sounds like the most unsympathetic doctor ever.

Rest up, love and I hope the antibiotics kick in soon. You must be majorly run down at the moment. :(

Oh, that sounds dreadful and at least you had that coughing fit at the doctor's office where you could be treated. If that had happened at the supermarket I'm sure somebody would have called an ambulance!

I hope the antibiotics kick in quickly.

OMG I am so glad you don't have pneumonia. My mother has it, (walking I guess since she is driving talking etc.) and my grandfather just died from it. However the 4 day flu I just had doesn't feel good either.

Rest, read lots and get better! Live Journal friend's orders, which is better then Dr's because there is love behind it.

I hope that someone has tucked you into bed and brought you tea with honey, and your favourite books (or your laptop) and the tv remote, and is basically pampering you for all your worth. Feel better, sweetie.

That is horrible. D: Can the doctor give you steroids for the cough?

I just spent all day reading that new story posted about werefox!Stiles. Over 73 thousand words of utter perfection.
